if this keeps happening, please try out the definition of setitimer[] in nt.c in
place of calling cygwin's setitimer[] library function. [all that BROKEN_SIGIO

I've done this, and I have been running for about 24hrs without any
lockups. Furthermore, maybe it's my imagination, but, XEmacs now seems
"snappier". It seems to respond quicker to interactive input and it
Gnus/nnimap seems to work more quickly. However, I have seen a few
random crashes that produce the following output -

Here is what I did -
o make distclean
o apply the patch at the end of this message
o add nt.o to extra_objs in src/Makefile
o make
These changes cause XEmacs/Cygwin to use the signal emulation functions
intended for native Windows instead of the routines provided by Cygwin.
What should I do now? Should I cleanup my changes and submit them to
xemacs-patches? I'm reluctant do this without someone more knowledgable
than I saying "go for it". This seems like a pretty major change to the
Cygwin platform....

Errg. I think this is the wrong thing to do. We must continue to use the
cygwin signal implementations so that we interact with subprocesses etc
correctly.

New subject: Cygwin, signals, BROKEN_SIGIO [was Re: [PATCH] fix compile errors, C-g problems, etc.]
andy's right that we can't just eliminate all cygwin signal handling. [it's
ok
for nt.c:timer_proc to use mswindows_raise[] rather than signal[] to call the
signal handler, but we can't replace all cygwin signals this way. in
particular, SIGCHLD will no longer get sent, and thus XEmacs may not notice when
a process ends.]
however, you did the right thing in that it looks like we can indeed fix the
BROKEN_SIGIO problem. i'll have a patch along in a few hours, along with a fix
for your "gc in window proc" crashes and the bash problems.
