A typical error message is
***MEMORY-ERROR***: emacs[5172]: GSlice: failed to allocate 504 bytes
(alignment: 512): Function not implemented
Emacs supplies its own malloc, but glib (part of Gtk+) calls memalign and on
cygwin that becomes the cygwin supplied memalign. As malloc is not the
cygwin malloc, the cygwin memalign always returns ENOSYS. A fix for this
problem would be welcome.
