Hi, I recently installed the latest version of cygwin after using previous
(1.5) versions without problems. Almost nothing works on 1.7 and even after
reinstalling my machine
I still have the same problem. My machine runs Windows XP SP2.
My install.log.full has a lot of errors like this one:
3879146 [main] bash 3716 fork: child -1 - died waiting for longjmp before
initialization, retry 0, exit code 0x100, errno 11
4 [main] bash 3872 C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe: *** fatal error - couldn't
allocate heap, Win32 error 487, base 0x6D0000, top 0x740000, reserve_size
454656, allocsize 458752, page_const 4096
This doesn't only happen with bash, it was also happening with other apps
such as rsync before I reinstalled the operating system. Any ideas or hints
for diagnosing this? Can I acquire an older setup.exe and try installing a
previous version of cygwin? Full log is at

If you look in the email archives for messages with similar complaints,
you'll find that this kind of problem is most commonly the result of one
of two things:
1. You need to install the rebase package, read its README, and run
rebaseall as prescribed.
