I've encountered the same "silent exit" problem
in a multi-threaded Python Tkinter program also.
I'm guessing that the Python interpreter hits
an error starting a thread, so it calls exit(),
and that the thread changes in cygwin 1.5.19
relative to 1.5.18 caused the problem we're seeing.
My program worked again after reverting
the "cygwin" package back to 1.5.18.
