Not just X (Was: Cygwin Emacs-X uses 99% of cpu)

I find that this is the last snapshot without the problem:

CYGWIN_NT-4.0 BRYCE 1.3.15s(0.62/3/2) 20021103 23:52:20 i686 unknown

This snapshot exhibits the problem:

CYGWIN_NT-4.0 BRYCE 1.3.16s(0.63/3/2) 20021106 21:24:12 i686 unknown

(Although I'm quite ignorant about Cygwin internals, my money is on
the sigproc.cc changes...)

Hope this helps.

Regards,
David
