Sorry, this is a bug report without a patch.

I don't know if anyone can run Octave in Cygwin 1.3.4 successfully.

I updated the Cygwin into version 1.3.4.
And, both Octave-2.1.34 and 2.1.35 will crash 
when using some complicated functions in Octave.

I try to find what's wrong by run octave in the old Cygwin snapshot
(which I can found)
I find that it works great under snapshot-20010929.
but will crash under snapshot-20011001.
I almost sure the change in environ.cc(v.1.60 20010930)
cause the Octave fail to find its internal environment variables.

Hope this is helpful to find why Octave doesn't work in Cygwin 1.3.4.
