Hmm... It might be interesting to try `strace -o strace.out ./dmalloc_t
-s -t 10000'.  There's also dumper program which doesn't come with the
standard installation but is in the source for winsup/cygwin/utils.  You
need the naked-bfd and naked-intl libraries in your cygwin source tree
for dumper to build.  It creates a for real core file.  I haven't and
don't know how it's used.  However, the source is available.  And of
course, everyone's favorite, gdb.

Earnie.
