In the meantime I could reproduce the bug (which was described the first time
in http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2005-09/msg00058.html and then in
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2005-12/msg01038.html) on a Windows 98SE PC
which never had anything to do with cygwin before and where I only copied the
program launching COMMAND.COM with argument 'dir' and the 20051227 snapshot
of cygwin1.dll. Same crash. So I suppose it's a bug in the dll.
Cygcheck -s didn't crash this time (as described in
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2006-01/msg00010.html), it always runs fine
as long as started from a DOS command line box, but crashes as described if
started from the bash shell. This is the output from cygcheck -s -v -r, I
hope it'll help:
