I happen to have access to a an AMD64 system running Windows. All the
cygwin shells fail to fork with the following. I'd be willing to try
coding and running a patch if the experts would care to offer an idea of
what to try.

$P$Gls
C:\cygwin\bin\zsh.exe: *** fork: can't reserve memory for stack 0x410000
- 0x610
000, Win32 error 0
     35 [main] zsh 248 sync_with_child: child 2648(0x2C0) died before
initializa
tion with status code 0x1
    214 [main] zsh 248 sync_with_child: *** child state waiting for
longjmp
zsh: fork failed: resource temporarily unavailable
$P$G
