I will go further on this in a different post.vfork issues almost always indicate a need to do a full rebase. See https://cygwin.com/faq/faq.html#faq.using.fixing-fork-failures . Or switch from 32-bit Cygwin to 64-bit Cygwin, where such problems are extremely rare.Maybe add a new emacs-lucid package ?Cygwin's emacs uses GTK+ because that's the default for an emacs build on all unix-like platforms. But I'll think about adding an emacs-lucid package for the next emacs release. It would be good to know how much demand there is for this. Are there other emacs-X11 users who would prefer the Lucid toolkit?
As an avid emacs user I have no desire to switch to emacs-lucid. If the extra work to provide both packages is limited, it would not hurt to have both packages though.
