Hi,

This might be related to
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2008-11/msg00021.html, I'm also seeing
perl fail with a panic *with the latest snapshot*. Eg.:

$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-6.1 ***-w7 1.7.2s(0.222/5/3) 20100222 16:51:26 i686 Cygwin

$ /bin/autom4te-2.65 --help
panic: MUTEX_UNLOCK (1) [util.c:2641] at /bin/autom4te-2.65 line 93.

Unlike that previous email, I have not tried to downgrade.

I also cannot kill the associated perl process:

---

[1]+  Stopped                 /bin/autom4te-2.65 --help

$ kill %1
-bash: kill: (8056) - No such process

[1]+  Stopped                 /bin/autom4te-2.65 --help

$
[1]+  Terminated              /bin/autom4te-2.65 --help

$ ps -ef
      UID     PID    PPID TTY     STIME COMMAND
   shaddy    7424       1   ?  06:05:19 /usr/bin/mintty
   shaddy    7328    7424   0  06:05:19 /usr/bin/bash
   shaddy    7204       1   0  06:05:48 /usr/bin/perl
   shaddy    8144    7328   0  06:10:24 /usr/bin/ps

$ kill 7204
-bash: kill: (7204) - No such process

---

I have to kill via taskmgr.

Hope that helps,
Shaddy
