Actually, I can duplicate your issue with the 2012-06-19 snapshot but
not with the latest CVS.  I no longer see indication of a SEGV and
mintty doesn't abort.

The strace output does have a SEGV in /bin/sh, which is worrying, but I
see similar or worse problems with 1.7.15 so that doesn't seem to be
a regression.

Can you still duplicate this problem with today's snapshot?

I can't download a file from this slimmed down version:
http://matzeri.altervista.org/works/atlas/cgf/atlas-3.9.79-1.cygport

I get a:

Error 403
You can't access to the requested page or directory.

I can download the other two files.

I'm crossing my fingers that the latest CVS version of Cygwin fixes
your problem and I won't have to download this anyway.
