- Subject: strange crashes on invocation
I have a build system that uses rake under cygwin, and every so often
a build tool will crash on invocation:
1 [main] bclanc 1576! C:\budcat\tools\bin\bclanc.exe: *** fatal
error - could not load w, Win32 error 998
Stack trace:

bclanc is a tool compiled under cygwin that uses a few win32 APIs
(Semaphore, CriticalSection, CreateThread). Unfortunately, this crash
doesn't happen very often (maybe once every few hundred invocations).
The build system does parallel processing similar to "make -jN", so
there may be several build tools and compilers (both cygwin and
non-cygwin) running or being invoked at any given time.
I tried setting the CYGWIN env variable (export
CYGWIN="error_start:C:\cygwin\bin\gdb.exe") but gdb does not come up
when this crash happens, so I'm at a loss for how to gather more info.
I checked against the BLODA, and I uninstalled Symantec Endpoint
Protection in case it was causing any problems, however I still get
these crashes. I don't have anything else on the BLODA.
My OS is Win7 x64. Cygwin is built from CVS as of 2010-09-21 12:11
(though I'm pretty sure I've seen this on 1.7.7 as well)
