Since the only message you're getting is "no more processes", I
would guess that it may be accurate.  How about adding a 'ps -ef'
to each recursion, to verify.

cygwin 1.1.4 only allows a limited number of processes.  I've removed
this limitation in the snapshots.  Now you can have as many processes
as Windows allows.

So, two things:  1) try adding the 'ps', and 2) try a snapshot.
