Hi,

Based purely on the above (and not the rest of the report... sorry) I 
suspect it might be due to a problem that has just been fixed in CVS 
(http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-developers/2010-02/msg00037.html). If you 
have time to kill before someone of authority intervenes, you may want 
to try a snapshot (http://cygwin.com/snapshots/) and see if it helps.

Regards,
Shaddy
