I'm seeing hangs at the moment in a reproducible way.
One of the hung processes is stty.exe.
I attached with strace and saw the following three messages being rapidly
repeated:
64 115520392 [sig] stty 20375 sigpacket::setup_handler: suspending
thread, tls 0x7FFFFCE00, _main_tls 0x7FFFFCE00
77 115520469 [sig] stty 20375 _cygtls::inside_kernel: pc 0x7FF91290D574,
h 0x7FF912870000, inside_kernel 1
66 115520535 [sig] stty 20375 sigpacket::setup_handler: couldn't
interrupt. trying again.
Is this interesting?
The command was simply `stty size`.
