Cygwin + XEmacs: shell command execution delay

Hi,

why does the execution of a shell command out of XEmacs start more
than 5 seconds delayed after the call?

I'm using Win98 SE, CygWin and XEmacs for CygWin (current
versions). Everything works fine, only the execution of a shell
command out of XEmacs starts more than 5 seconds delayed.

Within this delay the whole system is halted completely. The mouse
pointer is freezed and the hard disk is NOT busy.

This is very annoying, especially when compiling a program. Does
anybody know how to fix it?

Igor
