I'm just wondering if it's a result of the exception handling changes or if it has been introduced by an older change. Still, do you have a simple init.el file I can use for testing, and a method to recognize if the file has been loaded or not, even usable by an emacs dummy? > Here, I am referring to the Cygwin build using --with-w32 > > >Can you provide two strace, > > I have used strace one or two times and the last time was many years ago.. Well, just start emacs under strace: $ strace -o emacs.trace emacs --with-w32 This might take a long time, so be patient... The file emacs.trace is what might give us a clue.
