So this would indicate that the problem is specific to Cygwin.

I see several possible ways to try to resolve this:

 . Ask on the Cygwin mailing list if someone knows about this problem
   and its reason(s);

 . Try upgrading to a newer version of Cygwin or downgrading to an
   older one, and see if that helps;

 . Post here the results of running ./configure; perhaps we should try
   various options related to memory allocation and see if any of them
   solve the problem.

(Please don't take this discussion off the list; I'm not the only one
who could contribute ideas.)
