Small correction: I can produce the unbreakability now.

If I start cygwin.bat and use that shell CTRL-c is rather, aehh, unresponsive.
It just takes a while but at some point the CTRL-c will arrive at dmake and
then it will start terminating its childs. (This is with the CYGWIN environment
variable set to "", i.e. empty.

BUT ;) if you set CYGWIN=tty *before* starting bash in cygwin.bat it is
breakable again.

Somehow working in cygwin.bat produces a lot more missing/extra child messages
and zombies than working from rxvt or an ssh login. (I never use that batch
file, that might explain why I usually get less problems/no hangs.)

On a positive side I got an Idea where the "famous" hangs might come from. If
cygwin manages to leave a process behind that doesn't close or maybe even
"zombifies" (You sometimes see this leftover processes) and no other process in
the queue is left that finishes the wait() will just wait forever. (I managed
to get into this state once.)

I'll try replacing the wait() with a waitpid(-1, .. , NOHANG); usleep(10);
plus some diagnostics to complain if we loose a process while waiting. ...

@ause: Can you confirm that CYGWIN=tty (or using rxvt) cures the unbreakability?
