And are you sure there were no Cygwin processes running?  This could 
happen even after shutdown/restart if you have any Cygwin services that 
start automatically.

I have no idea what would cause such error messages.  Achim, have you 
ever seen this?

This kind of fork error can be very stubborn.  The best long-term 
solution is to switch to 64-bit Cygwin if you can.  If you absolutely 
have to stick to 32-bit, try to limit the number of DLLs that are installed.
