I made the following experiment: I installed cygwin 1.5.18-1 and now ./temacs.exe --batch --load loadup bootstrap creates emacs.exe BTW, I have not rebuild temacs because most of build tools are not compatible with the old cygwin dll, e.g., rm produces an error The procedure entry point getline could not be located in the [DLL] cygwin1.dll I reverted back to 19-4 and now temacs again fails with apparent recursion (malloc() from cygwin1.dll calls malloc from temacs). > > I have no doubt about it -- I currently use emacs which was built from > > cvs on 2006-01-16 (before I upgraded cygwin) and the problems with > > build starts to appear only *after* the last cygwin update. > > Then it's probably a good idea to post the information you found on > the Cygwin mailing list.

The problem is that I have no idea what to tell them: temacs fails with DLL 1.5.19-4 but dumps emacs with DLL 1.5.18-1 is not a reasonable bug report. Let me put the question differently: what was changed between 18-1 and 19-4 in the DLL (note that .h files are irrelevant since I used temacs built with 19-4).
