Subject: Fork problem (?) when bootstrapping gcc

Hi,

from time to time, I'm bootstrapping gcc on my Win98 cygwin Box.

From a few weeks, it ends after about 1 hour of bootstrap with the following
message :

    103 [main] make 395143 fork_copy: user/cygwin data pass 2 failed,
0x10010000..0x10312000, done 0, windows pid 4293978333, Win32 error 8

Signal 11
make[1]: *** [stage1_build] Error 139
make: *** [bootstrap] Error 2



As a comment in fork.cc (around line 91) says that :
       /* If this happens then there is a bug in our fork
   implementation somewhere. */

I post it here, just in case it helps or if some one can help me to find
what is wrong with this bootstrap...

I thing it is a cygwin (or Win98 ?) issue because no one in the gcc mailing
list has complained about such a problem

Thanks,

CJ
