And, that's part of the problem. The words "cygwin scheduling bug" make
very little sense. Cygwin is not an OS which schedules things. There
was also a mention of fifos, which doesn't make sense in a cygwin
context.
The bottom line is that I tend to ignore problems where the description
makes no sense. It's a simple fact of life that we have to pick and
choose what we do if we want to sleep 7 hours a night.
Out of curiousity, have you tried the most recent cygwin snapshot? I'm
wondering if "scheduling bug" translates into "emacs cygwin is using
100% of my CPU". That bug is supposed to be fixed in cygwin snapshots.
