It finally occurred to me to stop looking for a bug in fhandler_pipe::raw_read 
and instead see if something is in fact repeatedly writing to the pipe, so that 
drain_signal_event_pipe never finishes.  Putting a breakpoint at 
fhandler_pipe::raw_write, I found that this is in fact the case.  While the main 
thread is repeatedly reading from the pipe, a second thread is repeatedly 
writing to it.  Here's the backtrace of that thread:

This looks to me like an XEmacs bug that happens to be triggered by the new pipe 
code, although maybe there's also a Cygwin bug that I'm not seeing.  The comment 
at the beginning of signal_fake_event might be relevant:

void
signal_fake_event (void)
{
   Rawbyte rbyte = 0;
   /* We do the write always.  Formerly I tried to "optimize" this
      by setting a flag indicating whether we're blocking and only
      doing the write in that case, but there is a race condition
      if the signal occurs after we've checked for the signal
      occurrence (which could occur in many places throughout
      an iteration of the command loop, e.g. in status_notify()),
      but before we set the blocking flag.

      This should be OK as long as write() is reentrant, which I'm fairly
      sure it is since it's a system call. */

   if (signal_event_pipe_initialized)
     /* In case a signal comes through while we're dumping */
     {
       int old_errno = errno;
       retry_write (signal_event_pipe[1], &rbyte, 1);
       errno = old_errno;
     }
}
