I'd suggest 'cygcheck cygggi-2.dll'. Make sure there's no MS CRT in
there anywhere. If there is, you're on dangerous ground. Comparing the
output of this with that of cygii-0.dll might be instructive too.
>Is it a known problem?
No. If nothing "obvious" turns up in your initial efforts to scope the
problem, you're probably going to be best off debugging into the Cygwin
DLL to see where it crashes.
