Vim won't start after perfomring an update with the latest setup.exe. I do
echo $? and it shows it exited with 127.
This person
https://superuser.com/questions/859379/exit-code-127-in-cygwin64 reported
he was able to fix the issue by installing clear.exe via the ncurses
library. I checked and indeed I am missing clear.exe, I then installed it
by installing ncurses, I now have clear.exe, but vim still refuses to
start and still gives code 127.
Emacs starts fine.
I do strace vim and get a window popup vim.exe Entry Point not Found: The
procedure entry point sigalstack could not be located in the dll
cygwin1.dll
