Sorry for the delay but i was off for some days.

I had tried with 1.3.2-1 and now i downloaded cygwin1-20010525.dll but ddd
does still not work.

I can see two ddd processes in the taskmanager, the original one and
the forked consuming all remaining cpu time but unable to exec gdb.

I am using ddd-3.3 with lesstiff 0.92.6, build with 1.1.4. I have not
rebuild ddd from source, i only replaced the dll.
