[Note for distutils-sig readers: I am trying to track down a build issue 
with version 1.1.6 of the PIL under Cygwin - nobody else reports any 
successful or failed experiences building this package].

Here's the output from a failed setup run with a couple of debug prints 
inserted which should report how sub-process termination occurred - it 
hangs after this output.

$ python setup.py build
running build
running build_py
running build_ext

Are we done yet? Waiting on pid 3280

As a further follow up, I extracted the _spawn_all function and ran it 
under command line control.

Everything seems to work fine with other subtasks, so I am wondering 
whether this is a failure specific to gcc, which would seem kind of 
unlikely. So I ran the same compile using my test function standing 
alone, and see

sholden AT bigboy ~/Imaging-1.1.6
$ python ~/Projects/Python/spawntest.py gcc -fno-strict-aliasing 
-DNDEBUG -g -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -DHAVE_LIBZ -IlibImaging 
-I/usr/include -I/usr/include/python2.5 -c libImaging/Chops.c -o 
build/temp.cygwin-1.5.24-i686-2.5/libImaging/Chops.o
Are we done yet? Waiting on pid 3244
Got pid, status 3244 0
Got WIFEXITED 0

So it appears unlikely to be gcc-specific, leaving me wondering what 
exactly is the difference between the build environment and my tests.

regards
  Steve
