Hard to say since it's not clear what your memory problem is or which
reference you found on the list.  I'm going to guess you're referencing
this thread:

http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2001-02/msg01627.html

If that's the case, the reply I gave to Chris Althouse is the only one I 
can give to you.  Certainly more details are necessary to make a more
specific diagnosis.  Perhaps Chris can enlighten you and the rest of us
with the results of his debugging session.

Perhaps the output of cygcheck -s -r -v might help, along with some 
details of what the problems are that you're seeing.

Sorry, that's all I can offer at this point.
