Yes.
First step, please test with the latest Cygwin developers snapshot,
if the problem persists. See http://cygwin.com/snapshots/
If yes, send a *minimal* testcase to reproduce the problem. Minimal
testcase means a short, concise source code, possibly written in
pure C, which is compilable out of the box, with not more than the
necessary lines of code to reproduce the effect.
