Hmm. AFAICT, this discussion does belong in both groups until we narrow
down what is causing the crash.
You say you are getting a "Signal 11" error message, but I don't see a
reference to which program is actually crashing.
Previous email mentions that the program in question is xdvi. It even
received confirmation, right here in cygwin-xfree. However neither of
the previous messages nor this message are going to help much since
there is no accompanying information about the environment in which the
crashes occur. This is why the standard response is to direct people to
the problems page where attaching cygcheck output is suggested.
Attaching cygcheck output is something that Fergus has seemed reluctant
to do. The cygwin problems page also has a lot of tips for reporting
problems, one of which is to not send email with vague subjects.
I have already requested that the xdvi package maintainer jump into
this discussion so maybe they will have some insight.
