Re: bash hang ( G:\Cygwin\bin\find.exe: *** WFSO timed out for afterlongjmp)

Hi,

I've seen this quite a lot of hangs over the last 3-4 months when doing
large find's and it's not always easy reproduce and normally occurs when
find has finished and returned, but not always. If you run the following
from a bash prompt (seen it in cmd.exe and rxvt) and run the following

$ find /usr/include -name "*.h" -exec fprep "_t" {} \;
^???

After that has returned if you wait for 30-60 seconds you may see the above
message. If not try a few times, same intervals and it should crop up, but
like I said it's not always easy to reproduce. It's not damaging as a ^C
will break free of it, just wanted to let you know I'm seeing it. :-) It's
coming from sync_with_parent in fork.cc ...

Just tried it 5 times, never had any problems...
