Right.  This looks like a fork problem.  It's 32 bit, so we have to
expect fork errors more often.

Given how much the distro has grown, and given that the number of 32 bit
systems is constantly shrinking, we should really start to think about
dropping 32 bit support.

Most users these days use 64 bit systems.  Some use 32 bit Cygwin on 64
bit systems, which doesn't really make sense, except, maybe, to build 32
bit packages.  These users can easily switch to 64 bit Cygwin.

The access statistics indicate that real 32 bit systems only make less
than 2% of installed systems.  It's a lot of hassle to keep 32 bit
Cygwin running for only a minor installation base.

I'm not saying that we switch off 32 bit support right now, but maybe
2020 should be the last year of 32 bit support.
