I have seen plenty of reports that emacs is going into an infinite loop
upon startup, but I have not been able to offer any solution to help
people fix this problem.
Well, now I have the same problem on my machine. This is obviously due
to a bug in some new Cygwin package, and I am guessing that cygwin1.dll
is most likely the culprit (as there have been no new XWin.exe nor emacs
releases in quite some time).
The problem showed up after I ran setup.exe on Monday, I believe... but
I did not run emacs again until today.
So, which release do we think caused this problem? I am running
cygwin1.dll version 1.3.15-1 from November 7th.
I will check now if there is another update available that fixes the
problem.
