--- Comment #2 from Joel Holdsworth <joel at airwebreathe.org.uk> ---
Are we saying that the stack bug and this bug are really bugs in Cygwin?

Of course in principle, Wine ought to run and piece of Windows software - even
if it is buggy.

However, in practice, isn't it Cygwin's fault for reallocating the stack, and
leaving stale pointers in ExceptionList?

And isn't it Cywin's fault for assuming the Windows dlls will never step the
stack pointer over the guard pages?

Maybe one day these things could be handled in Wine, but for now, perhaps it
would be better to make fixes for Cygwin.

Also the cygwin FAST_CWD code making assumptions about Windows executable code.
