Thanks.  So find_tls, running in the "sig" thread, is getting an 
exception while Cygwin is trying to process signal 20.  The latter is 
SIGCHLD.  Based on Lem's original report, I would guess that the SIGCHLD 
is generated by ghostscript exiting when it finishes processing the 
file.  An error in processing the signal would explain the fact that asy 
hangs.

I'm not familiar enough with Cygwin's signal-handling code to be able to 
debug this, especially since I can't reproduce the problem.

It would be helpful if others could try Lem's recipe and see if they can 
reproduce it.
