The following information might be helpful in investigating
this problem:

 1. Provide a detailed list of the steps (Emacs commands)
    that you are running to reproduce the problem.  This
    should include a document file that is input into 
    Emacs, preferably included as an attachment to your
    message, and compressed using bzip2 or gzip.

 2. Provide a detailed list of the steps that you took
    to create your emacs binaries.  This should include
    a copy of the output of 'configure' (again, included
    as a compressed text file attached to your message).
    Unfortunately, the Emacs documentation is opaque
    about what environment must be available during the
    configuration stage.

I, for one, will look at this information if you provide
it to help investigate what is causing the problem.  Others
might find it useful, too.  Once a solution has been found
it should be possible to include the proper steps in the
cygport for Emacs so that it can be used going forward with
later releases of Emacs.
