    I just tried to build on 64-bit Cygwin, and the build fails as follows:

    [...]
    Dumping under the name bootstrap-emacs.pdmp
    dumping fingerprint:
    923050a9f611ad7ead76eea704308e4d05f152601a9134cf8d1b5ff3e0e1a986

    emacs: could not load dump file "../src/bootstrap-emacs.pdmp": out
    of memory

    There's probably some obvious explanation, but I don't see it at the
    moment.


I'm not entirely surprised to see Cygwin fall over here. We could just use the Windows memory mapping functions directly, but I'd prefer to stick with the POSIX API if we can make it work.

I agree.

Any idea where in the mmap sequence we fail?

I haven't looked at the code yet, so I don't understand the question. If you give me some guidance, I'll try to investigate.
