Unhandled exceptions in cygwin1.dll when using bash on WinNT


Hi,

I'm a very happy cygwin user, but at times, I repeatedly get error messages
that drive me nuts.  The error message is;

The instruction at "0x6105ab9c" referenced memory at "0x0a746b18". The
memory could not be "written".
Press 'Cancel' to debug.
When I debug in VC++ 6.0, I get 
"Unhandled exception in bash.exe (CYGWIN1.DLL) 0xC0000005: Access violation.
And the debugger jumps to
6105AB9C   mov         dword ptr [edx+eax],edx

I'm sorry, but I'm mostly a user of cygwin tools, not a developer.  So, any
ideas as to what might be going wrong?  BTW, here's some more info.

Thanks,
