Hi Christopher,

I managed to create a simple replicator for the latest issue with the 2012-05-07 snapshot.

The script below crashes within seconds with the 'Resource temporarily unavailable' message.

====================
f.sh:
--------------------
#!/bin/bash

cmd /C start notepad

while ( true ); do
  X=hello
done
====================
$ ./f.sh
      7 [main] bash 4288 fork: child -1 - forked process died unexpectedly, retry 0, exit code -1073741819, errno 11
./f.sh: fork: retry: Resource temporarily unavailable
./f.sh: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable
--------------------

Best regards,
Rob
