Hello,

I believe it worked fine before (until a few days ago). I updated to
latest cygwin by running setup-1.7.exe.
(Just running setup -> click several next...  -> finish)

And now if I do
    /bin/gvim
    :!ls

I see a message 'Cannot fork' in the gvim window.
And see
    2 [main] gvim 2092 fork: child -1 - died waiting for longjmp
    before initialization, retry 0, exit code 0xC0000005, errno 11
in the cygterm console window.

If I run '/bin/gvim -f' (foreground), then '!ls' works fine.

Regards,
namsh
