I have tried the latest update from CVS.  Still crashes, but stackptr does not
go out-of-bounds.  At some point, _sigbe tries to ret with the top of stack
($esp) value set to 0.

Some additional data points:

1. I moved the test .exe file to a Win2000 box running an old cygwin1.dll (file
version 1005.5.0.0, product version 1.5.5-cr-0x9b).  No crash.  The test seems
to run fine.

2. I moved the new 1.5.8 cygwin1.dll back to that Win2000 box.  Test crashes.

It is not feasible for me to put together a simple test program, unless you want
load and build RTEMS so you can link to it.

If you trust me, I can push you the test .exe file.  I can uuencode it to
probably get past your filters.  But that seems like a poor thing to post to
this list.  Do you want me to email it or push it somewhere else?

Please advise.

Please, avoid putting raw email addresses in messages.  They serve no purpose
and are spambot fodder.

Thank you for providing an impressive amount of detail.  I have made some
changes to setjmp/longjmp.  I don't know if they fix your problems but I did
manage to write a very simple test case which illustrated a problem with using
setjmp/longjmp in signal handlers.
