  What part of 'no cygwin' don't you get?   ;)

  If there's a bug in mingw, you should raise it on a mingw mailing list.
Discussing it here would be as much of a waste of time as discussing it on an
MSVC mailing list.

  So, as far as the cygwin mailing list is concerned, this is to report that
there is /no/ bug?  Thanks for that!

  You're actually fairly lucky that it works when you go mixing random
win32-isms into a Cygwin app like that; you should be using pthread functions
to spawn threads under cygwin.

    cheers,
