I made a change to cygwin based on some research by Pierre Humblet (what
else is new?) which should solve a fork race which would cause strange
behavior on multi-CPU or hyperthreaded systems.

It's probably too much to hope that this would solve all of the reported
problems but I would appreciate if people would give the latest snapshot
a try:
