Posting the problem script would be a good start.  But any crash in
bash is a bug that should be identified and fixed.

Unfortunately, stackdumps on stripped binaries are pretty hard
to debug.  I don't know where it is crashing without something
I can reproduce in a debugging binary.

The problem-reporting guidelines suggest plain-text (not encoded)
cygcheck attachements for a reason.  I can't decipher your output
in my webmail reader.
