Hi all,

Anyone having trouble running HEAD under cygwin? Specifically, anyone seeing
the postmaster SEGV on startup (again, this is with the cvs sources).

Seems that (1.5.9-1, at least) cygwin SEGVs after dup()'ing an FD over 130
or so times, as is done by count_usable_fds. [5-liner program confirms]

Can I get a confirmation another cygwin install?

Cheers,
Claudio

I haven't tried PostgreSQL CVS HEAD, but see below...

Yes, see below...

I'm seeing PostgreSQL 7.4.2's postmaster SEGV on startup under 1.5.9-1
too. AFAICT, the stackdump indicates the problem is in the Cygwin DLL.

Unfortunately, due to the following problem:

http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2004-03/msg01368.html

and starting a new job, I have not been able to debug this problem
further. These problems are also preventing me from releasing Cygwin
PostgreSQL 7.4.2 too. :,(
