kind of destroyed my cygwin install, as now even bash breaks with fork
errors at libiconv*.dll. My only guess it could be several instances of
dlls with the same name...

Even on my seemingly lucky install, when I do install and reinstall too
much things reabsing can go crazy and everything get useless and mined by
fork errors, but I really fear its only a name clash issue, that just the
forking hell which is clearly described on Cygwin pages.
