No i didn't. This STC was another (probably independent, but much more important)
problem, solved by Corinna in February. For the moment i could not find
any reproducible scheme that leads to "process synchronization failed".
However, a full night of various compilations (using make -j 3) produces about
a dozen of such messages (using make with no -j produces no message, that's
all what i know for the moment).

Included cygcheck.out and cygcheck.err (from last Tuesday).
Other problems i still have not fully reported:
- ldd produces "??? => ???" on some DLLs (/usr/bin/cygoctave-1.dll produces 6 such lines)
- strace produces "too many environment variables" always
- sometimes a process get frozen (not reproducible), if i kill it, the
killing process also gets frozen
