Until last week I was using 21.4.11 or so from xemacs.org, built with
whatever cygwin they used and it ran fine, so I was assuming a cygwin bug
here. 
Do you know since when the FIXME comment below exists?

When I said the X version works fine, I actually lied. On exit it dies with
a fatal error(11) and the lisp backtrace

Lisp backtrace follows:

  kill-emacs()
  # bind (arg)
  save-buffers-kill-emacs(nil)
  # bind (command-debug-status)
  call-interactively(save-buffers-kill-emacs)
  # (condition-case ... . error)
  # (catch top-level ...)


But that is another story. 
The code fragment you mentioned only shows where the ill condition
is trapped, not where and why it occurs. Looks like I really have to
try to build a debug version myself, but that is pretty daunting :-)


Ciao
Tom
