Huh! Well, it's hardly *my* fault that I have to scroll down in the archives
to see the attachment.
Ok, well, maybe it is my fault, but they really should improve the archives
so that it is clear that there is an attachment.
Ok, well, maybe I'm responsible for the format of the archives but...

I got nothin'.
Sorry for missing this. I would still do a check for other copies of
cygwin1.dll however.

The address in question is in cygwin's cygthread handling code.
Historically, this has been affected by things like scanners/firewalls
and special drivers, so this is a good thought.
I have seen something like this myself in the past but it was so sporadic
that I was never able to track it down and I haven't seen it in months.
