This is with cygwin:-
CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW64 blade24 1.7.0(0.212/5/3) 2009-09-11 01:25 i686 Cygwin

Anyone seen this issue before, or have any clue on how to
debug it?

Sounds like BLODA.

There's no reason that a CreatePipe() should fail with a "Invalid Function" error.

Unfortunately not as the machines have a clean install of Windows 7 in, with things like Windows Defender Service disabled. Could this be a resource issue as we are running quite a few cygwin processes on these machines.
