The window manager "Windowmaker" has a massive handle leak,
loosing about 50 handles per second, until the Windows kernel
runs out of buffer memory (after 12 hours or so, then everything fails,
socket api functions etc.)
I think this is the same problem Volker Zell reported at January 11. I just
updated my cygwin, so the problem is still present in the current
software.
I simply changed in "startxwin.sh"
XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error &
...
to
XWin -clipboard -silent-dup-error &
sleep 2
wmaker &
sleep 2
...
With "fvwm" or "twm" i have no problems.
