Yes, I certainly have in the past with internal versions of Cygwin, to the point I never build under Windows 98 (nothing recent though). > How could I "debug" this hang? > > Would it happen under NT/2k? I haven't seen it under Windows NT 4.0SP5, and I would imagine it probably would not show up under Windows 2K, since that is a descendent of NT. Now, the upcoming Windows ME release, which is based on the 98 branch, I would suspect would show the bug. -- Michael Meissner, Red Hat, Inc.
