 Hello Corinna!

 You haven't read the message completely. 'bt' cannot help since there's no debug information for ntdll and gdb is unable to unwind the stack correctly.

 I have installed the snapshot, and looks like it's now stable. However, this exception actually persists. I can tell you some more details. The actual malfunction happens when this exception fires twice in a row. I managed to catch this with strace a couple of times, but didn't save logs unfortunately.
 I want to try to bisect for the origin of this crash. Currently i know that it happens before main(). But is main() a real entry point ? I believe it's not. Can you tell me what is the real binary's entry point in Cygwin ?

 Yesterday in the evening i replied from home with some more information, but my reply got lost again :(
