Run rebase -is to check for DLL conflicts.
After the update did you run "rebase-trigger full" and setup,
with NO Cygwin processes running, to remap the system DLLs
and rebase the Cygwin DLLs?

It's likely the Insider debug builds dynamically enable/disable
features and functions or run alternate system DLLs which gather
info by acting as BLODAs.
MS can mess around with your systems to enable new stuff (possibly
in different combinations) and see which systems they cause problems
on.
Hopefully they can also dynamically revert new releases causing
problems.
Your systems are the canaries for their Continuous Delivery QA.

Make sure you continously back up any work on those systems and
don't ignore warnings, especially build expiries (you are meant
to be allowed 3 reboots after expiry before the buildrefuses
to boot!)
