Subject: Is there a fix for IsBadWritePtr Segfault?

I know, I've seen the posts on this issue but I'm a little suprised that 
a real solution hasn't been found.  I recently upgraded cygwin and 
debugging basically doesn't work.  The 'work-around' was to just 
continue gdb when it received one of these
segfaults.  Well, that workaround doesn't really work for the apps I'm 
debugging.  I am constantly getting these segfaults.  It pretty much 
makes debugging under cygwin unuseable.  Is there a real fix to this, or 
is one planned? 

Thanks for your help (I hope)

Rich
