I'm trying to get gdb 7.0 released currently and I don't want to make any more modifications right now. As for a workaround, you can either build a debugging version of the Cygwin DLL and then set "CYGWIN_DEBUG=yourprogram.exe" or you could modify your program to wait a few seconds before it starts and then attach to it with gdb. Also, PLEASE don't include the full header of the message you're replying to in the body of the message. It is pointless duplication.
