Sigh. I guess this means that I won't be releasing >a 1.5.3 soon after all. I've fixed the newlib breakage and built a new snapshot. I don't detect any excessive CPU consumption now. This snapshot also has fixes for the overlapping buffer problem in malloc/mmap. Thanks to Corinna for tracking this down. It obviously wasn't an easy task. For the technically minded, this turns out to be a longstanding problem in cygwin's sbrk implementation. Please try it. 1.5.3 is nigh. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
