24.3.50; sometimes "Memory exhausted" on Cygwin |

Hi,
This sometimes happens on Cygwin since the beginning of Jun
concurrently with Bug#14569 (bootstrap fails on Cygwin):
Memory exhausted--use C-x s then exit and restart Emacs
Error running timer `display-time-event-handler': (error "Memory exhausted--use
C-x s then exit and restart Emacs")
Memory exhausted--use C-x s then exit and restart Emacs [3 times]
At that time I can do neither `C-x s' nor exit; what I can do
then is only to kill the Emacs process (so I transcribed the above
messages by hand).
Thanks.

I'm closing these two bugs:

I don't know why, sorry, but Emacs on Cygwin doesn't make the memory
exhausted, it doesn't freeze, and it bootstraps smoothly these days.
`system-configuration-options' I use now is:
"--verbose --with-x-toolkit=lucid --without-imagemagick\
--without-dbus --without-gconf --without-gsettings"
I.e., Emacs is built with glib.
Thanks.
As for the derived bug
"Emacs segfaulting on FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE (amd64) during memory allocation."
that is labeled with bug#14569 (the same), I believe it's been solved:
