I still see the problem on both XP and W2K with cygwin 1.5.2-1.  Maybe
it's related to the size of physical memory?  I have 512M on the XP
and W2K systems and 256M on the NT4.0 system (which doesn't see the
problem).

One person has emailed my privately to say that he gets similar
behavior on his W2K machine, but he doesn't say which version of
Cygwin he is running.  I will encourage him to post to the list.
