Description Dirk Pranke 2012-07-18 15:28:05 PDT 
this seems to be due to the top-level import of ctypes in webkitpy.common.system.executive.py, which is only needed on win32. I don't know what ctypes is doing to cause the problem, or why it is only happening in config_standalone.

to reproduce you can run 'python config_standalone.py --mock Debug' from the cygwin command prompt, and you should see "Debug\nAborted" with python crashing at process exit :(.

You of course may not be able to reproduce this, as it doesn't seem to happen on the bots.

Too bad we can't use the win32api module instead. Ah, the joys of Cygwin!
