Ok, three things here.

First, please follow the reporting guidelines on
http://cygwin.com/problems.html.

Second, did you try a developers snapshot from http://cygwin.com/snapshots?

Third, if that's not already mentioned on the problems web page, please
try to create a short, brief, concise, simple, as minimal as possible,
self-contained testcase which allows to reproduce the problem.
