I have been getting a status_access_violation often on x11 related processes
with cygwin1.7, win7-64, McAfee anti virus. An interesting similarity between my
experience and other posts here is that I have Hebrew enabled on my windows
machine. Could this problem related to some locale or language setting imported
from the window environment?

Particularly, top.exe sometimes fails when running from xterm or the dos
terminal (Cygwin Bash Shell; cygwin.bat) as long as xwin is on. Once it fails it
persistently fails. If I close xwin, top works on the cygwin.bat dos terminal
consistently.

I have 'rebaseall'ed - it does not help.
