Sorry, I forgot to mention, I did try rebaseall - no difference.

Clear also forks until it runs out of resources, and there is nothing
from strace.

This also occurs when running the executables from ash or from
Start->Run.

The cygcheck output is attached. I've removed the environment variable
and userid info as it contains the domain name and userid. I can send
this to you directly if you wish.

Cheers,
Ollie
