Been getting crashes so I popped up gdb to see where they were. Tried break exit as Nick has suggested in the past to no avail.

This is what gdb pops out.

And here is the .stackdump file.

Did you config the MUD to be gdb'd? (So to say)

Yep, did so when I had the previous issue and kept it on for constant debugging.

If you're getting crashes, you shouldn't be breaking for an exit. A crash isn't an exit. If it's terminating "normally" then yes, you should be breaking for exit.

alright, I set up the environment variable CYGWIN error_start=C:\cygwin\bin\dumper.ext to hopefully get a core dump of it, and I did...

While this would normally point me to windows, I am going to have to say no to that. We are doing a cabal/clan system, and there is some error where it isn't loading a mob it's supposed to for one cabal, but it has for the past five. And it gives me an access violation error when it crashes. But on the off chance that it does load it.. no error and no crash. Guessing that it isn't my code that is doing it, but something with the area building? Gah.. if it is that, I can't get help here because it has to do with my area file and my storage files for cabal data and such. Okies.. off I go to see what the heck is going on.

Thank you for your help Zeno. Pointed me to that post which made me email the guy.. then the email didn't work so I googled it and found all kinds of debugging stuff out. Woot!

And I found the problem, it is the way the cabal is handled. Now to actually debug the issue. Yet again, thanks for your help.
