if that means that there's something else going on, but I'll retest it
after you package gvfs.  In the meantime, I'll continue with my
workaround of setting GSETTINGS_BACKEND=memory.

Now that gvfs is available, I've built the latest emacs-24 pretest against gtk3 and removed the GSETTINGS_BACKEND=memory setting, but I still have the same problem. If I start emacs and then just walk away from it, after a while it will die with a segfault. (It may take an hour or more before this happens.)


I've got a backtrace (attached), but it may not be useful because of optimization. I can rebuild without optimization if you think it would be helpful. In the meantime, if you want to try to reproduce the problem, you can get my build of emacs-24.0.95-2 by running

setup.exe -K http://sanibeltranquility.com/cygwin/kbrown.gpg

and adding http://sanibeltranquility.com/cygwin to the list of mirrors.

I'm attaching cygcheck output in case you can spot something in my setup that's different from yours.
