Subject: bug#39118: Segfault while building on 64-bit Cygwin

From: John Cowan <[email-masked]>

Both Cygwin and MacOS crash in pretty much the same way.  By disabling the
JIT, I was able to get the Cygwin build to run to completion.  On MacOS
with --disable-jit, however, I am now getting an entirely new failure:
