The malloc test also passes on my machine at work.

I am attaching a slightly modified test that runs in standalone
mode, using the cygwin1.dll. Simply gcc it. That may help explain
what's going on on your machine. It produces a verbose output when
given any argument. The behaviors differ when run from Cygwin or from
Windows.
