I can reproduce this problem on 32 bit Cygwin but not on 64 bit Cygwin.

The 64 bit version has a newer patch version 2.7.1, while I so far
neglected to update the 32 bit version which is still on 2.6.1.  I'll
build a new patch 2.7.1 for 32 bit today.  I hope that fixes it for
32 bit as well.  Stay tuned for the announcement.
