Does it even happen when you start with 'emacs -Q'? If not, maybe you could do some testing to figure out what in your initialization (including X11 initialization) triggers it. This might help to pin down the bug. I think I might have mentioned once before when you wrote about zombie processes that there is a known problem in emacs-24.3 that can cause problems with subprocesses. This is caused by race conditions between emacs and glib. The problem has recently been fixed on the emacs development trunk. If you'd like, I could build emacs from a snapshot of the trunk and let you test it to see if some of your problems go away. KenYes, please, I think I have been bouncing off of this myself lately...
OK, I've built bzr revision 113271 and uploaded it to my personal Cygwin repository:
http://sanibeltranquility.com/cygwin/There are instructions on that page for installing it. Please let me know how it works. I'm especially interested in knowing whether it solves some of the problems with zombie processes that have been reported.
