Re: [CIL users] FYI: problems with cilly under win xp and core duo processors

[Matt H. <mat...@gm...>]

I wonder what the problem could be.  We've used CIL on multicore Linux
machines, but not Windows.

Are you using the cilly script?  If so, perhaps the various processes
it spawns are run on different cores in a way that confuses cygwin or
CIL.  But if you have this problem when invoking cilly.asm.exe by
itself, I'm stumped.

Thanks,
Matt
