No, I'm not especially expecting *YOU* to step in. I'm just reporting
facts. Do you have any problems with this?

If anyone tries to build Openoffice within a cygwin environement, by
following these build instructions
<http://tools.openoffice.org/dev_docs/build_windows_tcsh.html>
he/she will most propably hit this problem.

I have no idea about the changes in the last two cygwin dll
releases, but I realized that the dmake program started to
freeze since I upgraded to 1.5.7. I get this problem on two
different build systems and therefore decided to let the cygwin
mailinglist know about my problems. I gave all the infos as they
are required by <http://cygwin.com/problems.html>.

Take my humble apologies if I missed an information, I will
immediately provide every missing bit.

Maybe I was suffering from the misled impression that someone who
changed this

- Revamp signal processing to allow beginnings of ability to send
signals to threads.  (Christopher Faylor)

in the last cygwin release might know why a program started to
freeze randomly. It never did that on cygwin before and it is
used on a widely spread set of platforms to build Openoffice.

> Just setting expectations.
Just giving facts.

P.S.: I was hoping that some of the strace lines and the reviving
with CTRL-Z and fg would ring a bell, but this obviously is not
the case.
