I read the doc on increasing cygwin's max memory limit and ran the test
program provided there. The limit I get is 1 GB, and my program memory
usage is only in the small MB - so I don't think a simple memory limit is
the problem here.

p.s I also tried using the cygwin glut package, with the same results.

I will try to pare down the program to its basic error-producing elements:
since the red book demos work fine, there is something in the extra
functionality I am using (histogramming etc) that might be causing this.
In the meantime, any thoughts, suggestions would be appreciated.

thanks !
