Are there other hypotheses? If so, please let me know (and if possible, please reply directly to me as well as to the list.) If not: ISTM that something "down deep" in the base broke after 1.5.5-1: 0 both character-mode (e.g. unzip) and X (e.g. emacs) apps are broken 1 inputs that worked in 1.5.5-1 don't work now 2 failures are intermittent and apparently random 3 some error messages suggest malloc problems Am I missing something? -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
