Thanks!

This looks like almost certainly a simple perl bug. Threads was Jerry Heddens
working arena lately, but there are complicated things going in core.
If it's easily reproducible best would be to start with a debugging perl
and break at the point which tries to read from 0x4.

BTW: I thought about adding -debug packages in general (to cygport) as
with fedora,
but got distracted somewhere.
