Due to your problem report and some googling, I had some vague idea
yesterday, what the problem could be.  But it's not clear if the very
simple patch I applied yesterday does really change anything with
respect to your problem.

Please test the 2006-02-22 snapshot from http://cygwin.com/snapshots/
and report if you see a change, to the good or to the bad.
