I've fixed the newlib breakage and built a new snapshot. I don't detect
any excessive CPU consumption now.
This snapshot also has fixes for the overlapping buffer problem in
malloc/mmap. Thanks to Corinna for tracking this down. It obviously
wasn't an easy task. For the technically minded, this turns out to be a
longstanding problem in cygwin's sbrk implementation.
Please try it. 1.5.3 is nigh.
