strace crash (TLS data not initializing?)


Is anybody else getting this problem? I'm using Windows 7 pro that's fully updated. At least I'm getting the crash consistently now, even when debugging. I didn't have cygwin1.dll built with -O3, so I had to experiment to find the thread local storage. If I've done in correctly, then it looks like this data is not initialized. This is right after a mov %gs:0x30,%rax

(gdb) p ((_cygtls *)(((TEB*)$rax)->Tib.StackBase - CYGTLS_PADSIZE))->locals.pathbufs $61 = {{{c_cnt = 2282544, w_cnt = 0}, _counters = 2282544}, c_buf = {0x76cea36e <ntdll!LdrInitializeThunk+14> "\262\001H\213\313\350\350\035\002", 0x76cca228 <ntdll!RtlAdjustPrivilege+408> "L\213\330H\205\300\017\204", <incomplete sequence \362\007>, 0x0, 0x22d430 "", 0x22d3e8 "\354'\001", 0x76cc0000 "MZ\220",
(etc.)

If there are really 2,282,544 single-char path buffers, then that would overflow the char *c_buf[50] buffer. Further, the first buffer exists in an executable section of ntdll. So I would say that this looks uninitialized.

Anyway, below is the backtrace. When I call tp.get_w() from the gdb prompt, it gives me more bad pointers.
