I found what seems to be the cause of the resource leak, at least for
the XP computers involved. Aventail Connect (a VPN client) seems to
have been involved since removing it from the system fixed the problem.
It seemed odd that using msconfig to start up with only essential
drivers and no
Attached is a very simple makefile which demonstrates the problem.
There's a leak either in make itself or in the spawning of
subprocesses.
Beware! this will likely lock up your machine, or at the very least
prevent you from launching any new processes.
Simply type make with this makefile in
to be doing any real harm.
As to your question, how do i solve/work around resource temporarily
unavailable, I would have thought it's obvious. You wait a while and try
again later when it isn't unavailable any more.
cheers,

Thanks for the input so far. Task Manager shows memory usage slowly
creeping up as the makefile below is run. I've verified this on two XP
laptops and one w2k desktop. The memory never comes back, and it
doesn't take long to max out a 512Mb/768Mb machine. Might take a bit
longer if you've
See attached. The make starts failing when it can't invoke some
subprocesses.

Just a WAG. Are you running a virus scanner like Agnitum Outpost (sp?)?

No, no virus scanners here.

I've got a make process that's pretty complex and does many recursive
invocations (at most 4 deep, though). With some additions to the
build, I seem to have recently crossed over some threshold which now
causes the build to use up all available process resources, so nothing
more can be run.

I updated both to 1.5.14-1. I then downloaded and ran rebaseall and
rebooted, which seems to have fixed the problem (at least the
invocations which reproducibly triggered the problem no longer do so).
rebaseall failed a few times before I remembered I had cygwin sshd
running. It also did not

Looks like the rebaseall only delayed the problem. I still get the
error, only now it takes a few more invocations of the build.
I will try a dev build next.
