unable to remap problem in Perl/Tk

unable to remap problem in Perl/Tk

[Chuck_Eaker]

Perl/Tk apps have stopped working. The error message is typically something
like:

C:\cygwin\bin\perl.exe: *** unable to remap C:
\cygwin\lib\perl5\site_perl\5.6.1\cygwin-multi\auto\Tk\Listbox\Listbox.dll
to same address as parent -- 0x420000
      0 [main] perl 1692 sync_with_child: child 1240(0x1A0) died before
initialization with status code 0x1
   4243 [main] perl 1692 sync_with_child: *** child state child loading
dlls
C:\cygwin\bin\perl.exe: *** unable to remap C:
\cygwin\lib\perl5\site_perl\5.6.1\cygwin-multi\auto\Tk\Listbox\Listbox.dll
to same address as parent -- 0x420000
5059122 [main] perl 1692 sync_with_child: child 1800(0x110) died before
initialization with status code 0x1
5068628 [main] perl 1692 sync_with_child: *** child state child loading
dlls

which continues until a control-C.

Is there a way to fix this?

Yes, I believe that you are being bitten by the same DLL/fork() problem
that affects Python too.  Please try the following:

    http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2001-12/msg00894.html

and report back to the list.  Of course, you need to rebase the Perl
DLLs instead of (or in addition to) the Python ones.  I would be very
interested to see if my rebase solution solves your problem too.

Thanks,
Jason
