I've seen a problem with running cygwin in the 64 bit environment, too, and I agree, the problem is not in the 32 bit emulation. The initial bash shell starts and runs
fine, internal commands work as expected. The problem I'm seeing is when an external command is tried. The error generated is:
$ ls
97304241 [main] bash 1640 sync_with_child: child 476(0x700) died before initialization with status code 0x80
97305532 [main] bash 1640 sync_with_child: *** child state waiting for longjmp
bash: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable
$
I'm not able to pursue trying to fix this and its not a high priority for me. But I could spare a cycle or two to help test, if needed.
