I noticed the same. But I'm not sure when it start happening.
I recently upgraded to cygwin-1.5.11, the latest xorg- stuff
and also to zlib-1.2.1/bzip2-1.0.2. Afterwards I had problems
with apache which could be solved as usually with a rebaseall
including my self compiled dll's.

I only noticed the problem after this procedure. So I'm not sure
what's the culprit.

In my case the cygheap_fixup_in_child error manifests only in a
couple of gnome1 applications which I compiled by myself. It looks as
so all apps which are dependent on /opt/gnome1/bin/cygart_lgpl-2.dll
are infected. All my other gnome1 apps works just fine. For example:

08:15 AM [741]> cygcheck /opt/gnome1/bin/gnubg.exe 
D:/opt/gnome1/bin/gnubg.exe
  D:/opt/gnome1/bin\cygart_lgpl-2.dll                   <----
    D:\bin\cygwin1.dll
      C:\WINNT\system32\ADVAPI32.DLL
        C:\WINNT\system32\NTDLL.DLL
        C:\WINNT\system32\KERNEL32.DLL
        C:\WINNT\system32\RPCRT4.DLL
  D:/opt/gnome1/bin\cyggdk.dll
    D:/opt/gnome1/bin\cygglib.dll
    D:\usr\X11R6\bin\cygX11-6.dll
    D:\usr\X11R6\bin\cygXext-6.dll
  D:/opt/gnome1/bin\cyggtk.dll
    D:/opt/gnome1/bin\cyggmodule.dll
    D:\bin\cygintl-3.dll
      D:\bin\cygiconv-2.dll
  D:/opt/gnome1/bin\cyggtkgl-4.dll
    D:\usr\X11R6\bin\cygGL-1.dll
  D:\usr\X11R6\bin\cygGLU-1.dll
  D:\bin\cygfreetype-6.dll
    D:\bin\cygz.dll
  D:\bin\cyggdbm-4.dll
  D:\bin\cyggmp-3.dll
  D:\bin\cygguile-12.dll
    D:\bin\cygguile-ltdl-1.dll
  D:\bin\cygintl-2.dll
  D:\bin\cygpng12.dll
  D:\bin\cygreadline5.dll
    D:\bin\cygncurses7.dll
    C:\WINNT\system32\USER32.dll
      C:\WINNT\system32\GDI32.DLL
  D:\bin\cygxml2-2.dll
  D:\bin\libpython2.3.dll
  D:\bin\cygesd-0.dll
    D:\bin\cygaudiofile-0.dll
  D:\usr\local\bin\cyggen-0.dll


I'm not seeing the problem so far with officially released apps.
For example gpg --version works fine here.
So I think I'm on my own here.
