Btw, did you try to see if there's a Cygwin Bash process, which is a
sub-process of Emacs, at this point?

Official releases are provided with stripped executables, so a
.gdbinit file there will not help.  Development snapshots (on the
http://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/windows/ page) and pretest binaries
(http://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/pretest/windows/), which are not
stripped of the debug info, already include .gdbinit to go with them.
