If I run '/bin/gvim -f' (foreground), then '!ls' works fine.

Exactly the same problem after recent update: Cannot fork and in the console
-196297461 [main] gvim 5284 fork: child -1 - died waiting for longjmp
before initialization, retry 0, exit code 0xC0000005, errno 11

This should be fixed in the next Cygwin snapshot and, subsequently, in the
next release.

If you could test this and confirm that the snapshot fixes the problem I'll
roll a new release.   It turns out to be a pretty serious bug.

I cannot reproduce the problem with the snapshot (20090920).
