I have compiled under cygwin g++ for a long time now and don't run into problems. Are you using the -mno-cygwin flag in your compile rules? I have two processes, where one is a child of the the processed that gets launched, but both are in c. Maybe it is better to address your issue in the c part of the application, possibly create a little c launcher app that will create the behavior you need. Whether you run your c widget from win cmd, bash, call if from perl python, etc, shouldn't really make any difference. Maybe I need to dig into your post a bit more.
