Those are true errors but they should not be responsible for your problems.

That one *could* be responsible.  I was suspecting something in the pipe
code since it has often been the cause of handle closing confusion.

I think I could pinpoint this pretty quickly if I could think of some
way to have cygwin dump the list of handles that it knows about and
their states.  Maybe I could get strace to do that when you first attach
to a running cygwin process.  I'll have to think about that but I guess
that means that there is another snapshot coming.

I know that Corinna has some experimental code coming which is intended
to work around the apparent Windows CreateFileMapping bug.
