I've identified the proximate cause.
env CYGWIN_NOWINPATH=
With this variable set at all (0 or 1, doesn't matter) typing ''l' (that's el) spawns several hundred bash.exe and fork bombs. From a stable prompt, typing 'exit' spawns 80+ bash.exe and I have to use the X button to kill the window and the run-away bash.exe fork bomb.
With CYGWIN DLL v3.2.0 or earlier hitting Ctrl-C shuts down the fork bomb at the command-line - the processes self-reap. With v3.3.x family Ctrl-C gives me my command-line back but requires 'pkill -9 bash.exe' over and over till the rogue process count is reigned in. 
If I unset CYGWIN_NOWINPATH I obviously pollute my environment with DOS programs but typing 'l' (el) returns immediately with:
'l' is not recognized as an internal or external command,operable program or batch file.
Did someone stupidly delegate the search for executables to blindly call CMD.exe and since with NOWINPATH set CMD.exe can't be found so it just fork bombs?    On Friday, April 29, 2022, 02:25:38 PM EDT, matthew patton via Cygwin <cygwin AT cygwin DOT com> wrote:

hmm so downgraded to 3.3.3 again and the program runs. But if I use strace the process gets half-killed. Trying to exit from '--help' Ctrl-C results in repeated lines like so and I have to force-close the window

All because I decided to upgrade my installation which had been perfectly fine for well over a year...

That does not happen to me.
