insight debugger locks up

[y2bismil at engmail dot uwaterloo dot ca]

Hi all,

i'm using the insight debugger from the lastest cygwin package.  It seems to be
locking up when trying to step through code.  The following program isolates the
issue on my system

******************************************************
#include <io.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include  <fcntl.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <conio.h>

int main()
{
   int handle;
   handle= creat("hello.txt", 0);
   if (handle == -1)
   {
      printf("Unable to creat file hello.txt\r\n");
   }

   write(handle, "Hello\r\n",7);
   close(handle);

   handle= open("hello.txt", O_RDWR|O_BINARY, S_IREAD | S_IWRITE);
   if (handle == -1)
   {
      printf("Unable to open file hello.txt\r\n");
   }
   write(handle, "urdum\r\n",7);
   close(handle);

  while(1)
 {
	char c = kbhit();
       if(c)
       {
            c = getch();
            char buffer[12];
            buffer[0] = c;
            buffer[1] = '\0';
            printf(buffer);
            break;
       }
        
 }
}


Compile line:

g++ -g -mno-cygwin -isystemC:/cygwin/usr/include/mingw -o main.exe  main.cpp
******************************************************
What I do:
Start the insight debugger.  Use Next (not even step into).  Stepping over this
line:  handle= creat("hello.txt", 0); causes a lockup of insight.  Yet, I get
the printfs:

printf("Unable to creat file hello.txt\r\n");
printf("Unable to open file hello.txt\r\n").

My problem first arose after trying out kbhit, which locks up.  Then I went to
my little file test program and it has the same problem.
Any ideas?

Yamin
