Thanks for that.  Just wanted to say I haven't forgotten about this report. 
Unlike previous putclip|getclip error reports, this one is a Heisenbug.. difficult 
to reproduce under a debugger or with any change made to the source.  I do have a 
handle on the issue thanks to a malloc debugger: it's a buffer overrun.  Debugging 
continues...

Subject: Updated: octave-6.4.0-1

New versions 6.4.0-1 of

  octave
  octave-devel
  octave-doc

are available in the Cygwin distribution:

CHANGES
Latest upstream  release. 
https://www.gnu.org/software/octave/news/release/2021/10/30/octave-6.4.0-released.html

GENERAL NOTE
there are 2 octave main binaries with multiple graphic properties

  octave  command line with full plotting capabilities

  octave --guigraphical interface

  octave-cli  command line inteface with plotting
  restricted to fltk and gnuplot toolkits

Of the 3 graphics toolkit fltk, gnuplot and qt

  fltk is the worst performing on cygwin
  gnuplot the lightest
  qt the most graphic rich

OCTAVE-FORGE NOTE
You need to install with setup the specific forge package 
you are looking for.

The update of the global pkg database is managed 
by cygwin setup during the postinstall phase.
A semaphore system is in place to update the database only when needed 
and just one time, also when multiple forge packages are added or removed.
 
DESCRIPTION
The GNU Octave language for numerical computations is a (mostly 
Matlab (R) compatible) high-level language, primarily intended 
for numerical computations.  It provides a convenient command-line 
interface for solving linear and nonlinear problems numerically.

Hi Marco,

There was a clipboard bug that Takashi fixed in commit 69ed8ca20.  I 
don't know if it's the same issue that you're seeing.  The fix will 
appear in Cygwin 3.3.4, or you could try the latest snapshot.


Ken



The last snapshot that includes that and another one still has the issue

$ uname -svr
CYGWIN_NT-10.0 3.4.0s(0.341/5/3) 2021-12-13 12:59

and it seems I am able to hit multiple failures in a row
very easily
