When I start Git-Bash, I get the following messages:

      0 [main] bash 15644 fork: child 16428 - died waiting for dll loading, errno 11
bash: fork: retry: No child processes
1160703 [main] bash 15644 fork: child 16724 - died waiting for dll loading, errno 11

SYSTEM
=======
OS: Windows 7 Pro, 64-bit, SP1
CPU: Intel i7-682HQ
Git Version: 2.11.1 and 2.10.2 (recommended by my IT)

OBSERVATION
============
The same thing happens when I run bash.  I put a "Processing .bashrc" messing in my .bashrc.  The errors occurred after the .bashrc and would reoccur on every [Enter] pressed.

Of course we have a "smart" PS1 with the path, etc. being evaluated each time.

Eventually I put this in my .bashrc:

echo "Processing .bashrc"
PS1='$ '

Now bash works.  Git-Bash still does not.

Can anyone tell me what the Git-Bash PS1 is trying to do and how to make it safe?

Thank you
