It seems that sometimes, full path confuses strace.
For example in my system:

strace.exe: error creating process /bin/ls , (error 3)

With 16-1, I'm seeing *extreme* latency in keypresses appearing in bash,

Robert,
I suppose you're right: I was too "enthusiastic" (does that qualify as a
euphemism in this context?). Also, I must confess I didn't read the KB

However, if this is really the result of that known problem in Windows, why
have we heard so little of it here?

In case it hasn't been made clear, if your system is Windows NT, 2000 or XP
and it blue-screens, locks up or otherwise exhibits a symptom of a system
