Is /bin/sh.exe bash or ash on your system.
Also, could you include the cygcheck output as mentioned at
http://cygwin.com/problems.html ?
I appreciate that you've taken the steps to debug this but without a way
to duplicate the problem there isn't much that can be done. I've run
both bash and ash in every way I could think of to duplicate this
problem with no success. I'm stumped as to how and why a cygthread
could be firing while a process is exiting.
If you can capture this state in gdb and get backtraces of all of the
running threads, that would probably help.
