I got a third hang in the same spot as the second and was able to create
a somewhat large testcase.

The following is a reduced (well 9MB zipped, 54MB unzipped) testcase for a
hang when building OOo with cygwin snapshots 20050913 and 20050914(both).

To reproduce get hang.zip from
  <http://www.openoffice.org/nonav/issues/showattachment.cgi/29572/hang.zip>
to c:\ and start loop.csh.

$ cd /cygdrive/c/solver/

$ ./loop.csh
loop

(nothing, no output) .....

You will see in the windows task manager that cppumaker is doing something
but then it will hang. cppumaker will vanish from task manager but a "zombie"
perl will remain. This perl will not be mentioned in the ps output.

If you CRTL-Z the script and start ps you will still see the cppumaker process.
