Subject:	sort kills cygwin
Mime-Version:	1.0

Hi All,

Im having blue screen of death problems all around.
I thought I had this beat, but no..

Anyway, Id been having BSOD problems when I ran "configure"
for the guile packages. The machine only died when I ran
the script, but I could not kill it by running any commands
from commmand line.

Ive finally isolated a command that kills my machine.
Everytime I run "sort" on any data, the machine dies.
sort --version does not give me a version number, but
rather the node that <-VERSION> is not a file.

Any idea why "sort" would cause problems? I have the latest
texttools, and most system libraries are new, although I
may have some old ones (older than 3 months)

Many thanks,
Bhiksha
