I agree, as I have been able to get a couple of other Win2008
boxes to work (one was a 32-bit Win2008 and the other 64-bit Win2008).
So the general capability is there, I expect I'm looking around for
an odd sensitivity here.

I'll give a try to a snapshot to see how that goes.

Also, if anyone has anything else I can do to help diagnose this
problem, please let me know what I should try.

Thanks,

Eric

That's really just a left over in cygcheck in the 1.5 branch.  After
all, the main purpose of the -11 release was to get Cygwin working on
Windows 2008.  I don't know what's causing the crash but it's not a
general inability of Cygwin 1.5.25-11 or -12 to run on 2008.
