Yes. The fix was to add the following for the Cygwin build, very early in main():
Indeed.. I have verified that G_SLICE_ALWAYS_MALLOC is 1 in config.h so
that in emacs.c
#ifdef G_SLICE_ALWAYS_MALLOC
/* This is used by the Cygwin build. */
xputenv ("G_SLICE=always-malloc");
#endif
defines rightly G_SLICE...
setenv ("G_SLICE", "always-malloc", 1);
I don't know why this no longer works. Maybe Glib now does its memory management initialization before emacs's main() is entered.
...evidently, this is not sufficient, too late: Emacs has already aborted
Probably, the problem is elsewhere...
Ciao,
