vfork failure?

I am having a problem with b18 (on pentium pro, NT4.0SP3):

    The heap has been split, CYGWIN can't fork this process.
    Increase the heap_chunk_size in the registry and try again.
    make[1]: vfork: Not enough space

This typically occurs in a "recursive" make and once the error occurs
in a single make execution all subsequent make forks fail this way.  I
grabbed Sergey's dll from coolview.tar.gz, but it appears to have no
effect on the problem.

Also, I'm not sure what registry entry the message refers to, so I
haven't tried (re)setting heap_chunk_size.

Any suggestions?
