I had the same issue a couple of weeks ago.
I never figured it out.
I ended up updating the compiler to v4.2.3 then I updated gdb to v6.7.1.
Everything started working.
You might try just updating gdb and see what happens.
The issue was only with cygwin. The same versions you have below ran
under linux just find.
