You still didn't explain what "crash" means, that was why I pointed you
at a web page which goes to some effort in trying to make it clear that
you should be descriptive when reporting problems.

However, I did create a Vista VM with Cygwin 1.5.25 and saw that the
code did not work.  It is a bug in 1.5.25 but it is not going to be
fixed since we are actively pursuing 1.7 now.
