The only thing I've found that fixes it is a reboot. I don't understand processes well enough to know what the problem is (windows or cygwin). I see this problem happen only when the process IDs are around 64-65k, so I'm guessing that it's running out of processes. Process numbers seem to increase for me when I run a lot of scripts (I have some web traversal scripts in perl that call wget and other commands a lot). I'm on XP Home with the latest cygwin. The cygcheck output is attached. Thanks, Nils. checking whether make sets ${MAKE}...
