Any findings? I have found something interesting: 1) If i run the terminal without mintty, the problem goes away. I can run my makefiles with "make -j20" without any issues if i start with "bash --login" instead of the mintty shortcut, where it just uses the normal windows terminal. 2) As soon as i run via mintty, even "make -j2" quickly goes south, causes various fork() issues as we have seen. I will see if i can create a small makefile that shows this. So either the change we are looking for affects mintty, or the actual bug we are looking for is in mintty and not the DLL (or both). Can anyone shed light on this? Another problem is that if i rewind the DLL (building previous commits) too much then mintty stops working... Any pointers would be great!
