The dead machine cannot be in the same local network or the fail is not happening. After Ctrl-C in the tcsh for ping, nothing happens and ps still shows ping as a running process. Killing that process ID from another shell kills the shell ping was started from along with the mintty it was running in. Trying to attach to the ping process with gdb recognizes it as "tcsh" rather than ping, which might explain why killing "ping" actually kills "tcsh".
