Ok.  I managed to duplicate this sporadically on my Win95 laptop.  It looks
like an incompatibility between Win95 and WinNT.

I've worked around this in the code.  I've just restarted a snapshot.  If you
want to try it, download today's snapshot from

http://sourceware.cygnus.com/cygwin/snapshots/

Make sure that you download a version of the DLL which has a ChangeLog
entry that mentions "exceptions.cc".

I don't know when you'll be reading this but the snapshot probably won't
be ready for another hour or so.
