Attached the output from cygcheck. For some reason it dumped core too:

$ cygcheck -s -v -r > /tmp/cygcheck.out
Segmentation fault

Other programs seem to work normally (though I haven't tried many).

The steps to reproduce the problem with emacs-24 are:

1. start emacs: emacs -nw -Q
2. C-x C-f C-g
Here emacs either dumps core or hangs.

I didn't have any problems with other Cygwin programs in the last
months.

Thanks!
