[darcs-devel] [issue546] ntvdm.exe takes up max CPU on darcs push to local on win32?

[Zooko]

New submission from Zooko <zooko at zooko.com>:

Folks:

If I do a darcs put to a local directory on win32, a process named  
ntvdm.exe starts hammering the CPU and keeps going for many minutes.

If I do a pull, the process appears, but then it disappears again  
shortly.

ntvdm.exe is apparently a 16-bit (!!) emulation module.

There are two likely culprits here:

1.  cygwin is using some crazy 16-bit something to launch/load bash  
scripts (there is a bash script wrapper around my darcs executable)

2.  haskell is using some crazy 16-bit something for some reason

Does anyone out there know?

Regards,

Zooko
