Problems with Emacs - Resolution(?)


To summarize:

Due to (self-inflicted) problems, I did a fresh install of cygwin to 1.5.7.1.

Emacs started behaving very strange:
* Random crashes
* Suddenly taking up 100% of cpu

This happened with all emacs versions I could get my hands on:
* 21.2.9
* 21.2.11
* 21.2.12

Earlier this week, I downgraded to cygwin 1.5.5.1 (I needed to downgrade ash to 20031007-1). Since then I have had no problems with emacs.

So, to my untrained eye, it looks like something in the new cygwin dll doesn't like emacs.
