zsh "configs and makes" but fails on "make check" testing.

1.) cygwin vers: CYGWIN_NT-5.1 1.7.0(0.212/5/3) 2009-08-11 11:07 (latest 1.7.0.57)

2.) zsh version attempting to build: zsh-4.3.10

3.) compilers tried:  
   - gcc (GCC) 3.4.4 (cygming special, gdc 0.12, using dmd 0.125)
   - gcc (GCC) 4.3.4 20090802 (prerelease)


Here is a sample of the same repetiting failure of the form:


".... fork: child -1 - died waiting for longjmp before initialization...."

I beleive I saw a reference to the cause of this kind of failure in one of Corinna's messages, but would like to clarify it and see if any workarounds exist for now, till it can be properly fixed in the core cygwin dll (if that's the problem)?

Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks,
   Wynfield
