Ok, I see what happens.  At fork time, cygserver gets called to fixup
the information on XSI shared memory regions.  When this fixup call is
made, the handle value sent to cygserver is invalid.  It's, in fact, the
value of this object in the parent process, while the object doesn't
exist at this point in the forked child.  The child value is set to NULL
just a little bit later and created as soon as it's required, but this
happens too late for the aforementioned fixup call.

I created a fix and I'm just building cygwin 1.7.29 with it.


Thanks,
Corinna
