Hmmmm... Using cygwin1-20011016.dll.bz2 I get:

   $ while :; do n=$[100 * RANDOM / 32767]; echo $n; make -j $n -f Makefile.partest >/dev/null; done

The previous snapshot (cygwin1-20011013.dll.bz2) is similar, except that
no complaints are made when $n < 50.

No hangs though.

No problems on Linux, or previous cygwin (1.3.2-1).

[Thanks for the interest BTW]
