If you suspect a problem with the cygwin DLL then you can build a
debugging version of the cygwin DLL and debug it using gdb.

Most of the console handling is in fhandler_console.cc.  The select
handling is in select.cc.  Look for the string "console" there.

Instructions for building the DLL are in the FAQ:
