Dear cygwin,

I have installed a version of the EGCS compiler as part of a development kit
(NNDK) supplied by NetBurner Inc. of San Diego CA.

The tool chain has worked perfectly under WIN98 and W2000 but I am getting
an error running bash.exe (as called from main.mak) under Windows XP.

The error returned is "couldn't reserve space for cygwin heap, Ox23000, in
child, cygheap, Win32 error 487".
In winerror.h, this error is defined as "Attempt to access invalid address"
but I am not sure that this is a correct interpretation.

The version no of the cygwin1.dll is 1001.8.00.

I hope you can help me as I would like to be able to use XP rather than W2K.

thanks

John Robbins.
