Given that cygwin no longer supports anything older than XP (SP3?), and that win7 seems determined to make the current fork() implementation not work reliably, might it be worth revisiting? I realize the answer depends strongly on the nature of those failures Corinna refers to (could somebody provide more details?).One reason not to use ZwCreateProcess was that up to the 1.5.25 release we're still supporting Windows 9x users. However, two attempts to use ZwCreateProcess on NT-based systems failed for one reason or another.
