Hey hey, I now have the emacs 100% cpu usage bug too [CGF, this oneis for you]

[Harold L Hunt II]

I have seen plenty of reports that emacs is going into an infinite loop upon startup, but I have not been able to offer any solution to help people fix this problem.

Well, now I have the same problem on my machine. This is obviously due to a bug in some new Cygwin package, and I am guessing that cygwin1.dll is most likely the culprit (as there have been no new XWin.exe nor emacs releases in quite some time).

The problem showed up after I ran setup.exe on Monday, I believe... but I did not run emacs again until today.

So, which release do we think caused this problem? I am running cygwin1.dll version 1.3.15-1 from November 7th.

I will check now if there is another update available that fixes the problem.
