Testing will happen soon ...

It is a system with 1.8GHz, no hyperthreading, no smp, 512Mb.

The only abnormal thing we could find is that it is running in
a Terminal Service session.

On *that* system it is pretty easy to reproduce the hang. It hangs
when you move another window over the one that is currently building
OOo. The "build window" is a cygwin bash prompt started with cygwin.bat.

I just asked in the OOo development ml who else can reproduce the problem.
