Heiko,
you wrote a lot of mail , but I do not remember a single

Problem reports:       http://cygwin.com/problems.html

As cygwin is working on win7/64, something is wrong on your machine,
but until you provide clear data we can not easly help you.

I am currently using 2011-11-08 snapshot  on win7/64 and it is working 
fine (2011-11-14 has a problem and I have not yet tested 2011-11-16)

Regards
Marco
