This problem is quite annoying. I already tried to investigate, and it 
seems to me that occasionally SIGCHLD signal is NOT delivered to emacs 
when the child process terminates. I tried to continue a little bit, but 
got lost very quickly in cygwin's signal implementation (hey, that's 
*really* complicated code). I tried strace and the only thing which 
caught my eyes were these lines:

   33 40372399 [sig] emacs 16900 wait_sig: processing signal 20
  389 40372788 [sig] emacs 16900 wait_sig: Got signal 20
   48 40372836 [sig] emacs 16900 sig_handle: signal 20
   32 40372868 [sig] emacs 16900 sig_handle: signal 20, about to call 
0x201405D0
 3900 40376768 [sig] emacs 16900 setup_handler: couldn't send signal 20
  115 40376883 [sig] emacs 16900 setup_handler: good.  Didn't suspend 
main thread, th 0x0
   35 40376918 [sig] emacs 16900 setup_handler: returning 0
   31 40376949 [sig] emacs 16900 sig_handle: returning 0

Does anyone have an idea what could be wrong?

thanks
Pavel
