Actualy two, but with identical hardware. Btw. both are using M$ Terminal
Service sessions. My gut feeling is that that might be the culprit.

As a test for that, see if they can install VNC one one of the machines, 
and do it through that? If that works, then it proves it..

Otherwise.. I assume they're using OOo cvs?
If so, I'll try and grab it and run a compile in TS (Remote Desktop) on 
a machine of mine as well..

This is likely to enable a fix or workaround in cygwin, but is it
possible that this is restricted to certain brands, models, or
revisions of processor?  Am I correct in remembering that it happens
only on some machines, Volker?

It looks different because I took out all of the debugging strace
output that I added to try to track this down.

I'm convinced that the hang is coming from timeGetTime.  That's a
Windows routine and there's not much I can do if a windows routine
decides to take a long time to return.

So, in other words, I'm admitting defeat in this case, especially since
this isn't a regression from 1.5.18.
