I updated cygwin yesterday on my windows 2003 64-bit (AMD chip) machine.
When I start emacs, many emacs processes (over 1000) were forked until 
they ran out of system resource, and then they die.  This also happened
to
"clear" command. So it  doesn't seem specific to a particular program.  

I wonder whether there are some mismatches between 32-bit/64-bit 
in my cygwin installation/setting, or it hits a known problem 
in cygwin on 64-bit windows.   


What is a fix/work-around on this problem? 
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
