Indeed.  I just tried again on another W7 64 bit machine and it still
works for me.  I'm wondering if the culprit is a virus scanner or
something similar running on your system.  Can you please check that?

Other than that I might have a solution.  I applied a patch which only
adds the CREATE_BREAKAWAY_FROM_JOB flag if the calling process is member
of a job and the job allows a breakaway.  It works in my limited
testing, but it would be important to know if it works for you, too, of
course.  If you're not set up to build your own Cygwin DLL, please test
the next developer snapshot.
