According to Christopher Faylor on 8/11/2005 11:34 AM:
>>Can you reproduce this with the latest Cygwin snapshot?

snapshot 20050811 fixes the problem; I correctly got "Argument list too
long" on a 2 meg command line, in both bash 3.0 and in my private
3.1-alpha, although it took 1m27.486s to give up (I think part of that was
the fact that NTFS is not very fast when bash is trying to glob 45000
files in the same directory).  So there is no point in me trying to debug
bash, because who knows what else was corrupted by the cygwin1.dll bug
before bash code was executing again.  Thanks for a nice fix!
