George,
Please change either your style of reply quoting or your signature. I had
to jump through hoops to be able to include the full thread history in my
reply, as pine kept cutting it off at the '-- ' in your signature. Also,
please try not to quote raw e-mail addresses in your replies. More below.

I've just verified that Cygwin's Apache (which is version 1.3.29) doesn't
recognize "en-US" (but does recognize "en"). This may be a bug in
Apache...

Try adding "en" after "en-US"...

I don't see this on Win2k SP3, Cygwin 1.5.8. But then, I run apache as a
service. You didn't provide enough information to allow others to attempt
to reproduce this. Please review the Cygwin problem reporting guidelines
at <http://cygwin.com/problems.html> and try again... Make sure to
provide the exact sequence of actions that results in the hang.
