You need to install the 'cygwin-debuginfo' package for debug symbols for 
cygwin1.dll

You also need to point addr2line at those detached debug symbols, as 
(unlike gdb) it doesn't follow .gnu_debuglink pointers.

(I'm assuming you've typoed 6155d363 here and it should be 0x6115D363 as 
the strace output says)

# addr2line -e /usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/cygwin1.dbg 0x6115D363
/usr/src/debug/cygwin-2.1.0-1/newlib/libc/machine/i386/strlen.S:64

This shouldn't happen.  Are you sure the crashing process is the direct 
inferior of gdb, and not some wrapper process which runs it? 
(uninstalled libtool generated binaries do this, for e.g.)
