I really want that "hyperthreading problem" with Cygwin resolved.  Does the following suggestion make any sense:

(I assume cfg is in the US, if not, make the necessary changes)


a: Someone (close by to cfg) demonstrates that the bug/problem/issue appears on his machine

b: This someone determines what an identical replacement machine would cost now

c: CFG (or the someone from a) sets up a paypal account for "HT Machine Donations"

d: When the required amount is reached, the Someone from a: sends his machine to CFG  and buys a replacement out of the paypal account


I am willing to pay 100 USD into that account.  Knowing that my machine has cost about Euro 1000 I believe it should take a real short time to provide cfg with a machine to test / debug the hyperthreading issue .

      

Any comments are welcome
