This has already been fixed in CVS but if you want to debug a process which
has been forked/execed you can also build cygwin with --enable-debugging and
then:

c:\>set CYGWIN_DEBUG=cat
c:\>bash
% cat | cat

This will pop up two debugger windows for the cat processes.

This functonality was broken for a while but I fixed it a week or
so ago.
