Yes, I saw the same thing last night, after having updated my Cygwin
installation over the weekend. In my case I was toying around with
Exact Audio Copy, with bash, XEmacs, and a cygrunsrv-hosted exim
instance running but more or less idle.

Did you notice that csrss.exe was also eating a lot of CPU time? Once
I stopped all my Cygwin-related processes, csrss.exe calmed back down
and all was well.
