Is it possible the cygwin has a more generic problem here?

This may be off-topic (excuses for that case), but I saw some really strage 
things recently when I configured UW-IMAP.

To prevent quite frequent hangs, I used a wrapper script

#!/bin/sh
tee NUL | /usr/sbin/imapd

and everything was perfect. 
See http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2004-11/msg01137.html for details.

PS: I´m also using XP (with SP2)
