The above problem was not due to exhausting the Cygwin heap. Instead,
it was cygipc's shmget() returning ENOMEM because /tmp/cygipc_0 was open
and mmap-ed in another backend:
(libcygipc) newseg : LBuff = /tmp/cygipc_0, errno = 13, return -ENOMEM (2)
See the following thread for the root cause analysis:
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2003-02/msg00255.html
I'm amazed that (so far) only PL/Tcl has triggered this problem.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to workaround this problem? Is it
time to switch to the Win32 version? :,)
Thanks,
Jason
