Hi,
I think you already have your answer: threads not available
If, for some reason, Sun's Java tools are unacceptable to you, you'll have
to hook up with people of like mind who are working on GCJ and / or Cygwin
support for the necessary thread functionality in order to accelerate
progress
Lee,
Surely all but the most inexperienced programmers using C or C++ know that
a program that executes without overt failure cannot be considered
bug-free? That a perfectly valid change in the compiler, the linker, the
libraries or a switch to a different platform (which usually means all of

Have you considered the possibility that there is file system corruption
localized to portions of the file system structures relevant to the /etc
directory or some of its contents?
According to the book Windows 2000 Proffesional Resource Kit, stop 0x24

I think that's unwarranted. You needn't be so pessimistic. You've done good
work in tracking down the source of an undesirable characteristic, but you
need to follow through.
Traditionally, the thing to do would be to write a single post (perhaps
under a new Subject: thread) in which

Peter,
I don't think this is a BASH issue, except possibly if your previous BASH
was a version that used a different algorithm for choosing which startup
scripts to execute. How long has Cygwin had the /etc/profile.d/
directory? I thought it was recent, but I see references in the mailing

It's OK. At least I didn't slander anybody...

Pavel,
Perhaps that's because strace isn't a Cygwin program:

Found: D:\cygwin\bin\strace.exe

Cygcheck itself exhibits the same symptom (it also is not
Thomas,
One thing to keep in mind is that while Unix (and work-alikes) has a -20
(best scheduling priority) ... +20 (worst priority) range, Windows has only
the six distinct levels. I don't know how Cygwin maps the Unix nice values
to the Windows priorities, offhand. Probably it's a linear
