emacs newbie question

emacs newbie question

[John Mamer]

Hi!
I'm trying to use emacs (19.34-6) with gnu-win32. Everything
seems to go O.K. except when I try to compile in a buffer.
I set up emacs to use bash.exe as it's shell command.  I can
compile a program and get the errors put into a buffer
exactly once.  The second time I try to do this, I get an
error and cygwin seems  to get stuck (it keeps on sending me
error messages until I kill it).  The messages go like this:

(unknown) In Cygwin_except_handler
(unknown) Exception trapped!
(unknown) Exception C0000005 at 10018910
(unknown) exception: ax 0 bx 3ED cx 91 dx 64
(unknown) exception: si 244FA28 di 0 bp 244FA3C sp 244FA18
(unknown) exception is: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION
(unknown) Stack trace:
(unknown) frame 0: sp = 0x244F84C, pc = 0x1000CEC2
(unknown) frame 1: sp = 0x244F868, pc = 0x77F94512
 ... and so on until it starts repeating
.
.
.
(unknown) frame 9: sp=0x244FFF0, pc = 0x0
(unknown) End of stack trace
(unknown) In cygwin_except_hander
(unknown) Error while dumping state (probably corrupted
stack)

and so on repeating the last two lines.  

What gives? Can I use bash.exe as the shell for emacs? 
If so, how do I do it?

Oh, I'm running Windows NT 4.0 spc3
thanks
j.
