Okay, here's the results from XEmacs-21.2.36 (tarball, not from CVS)
built under a latest-CVS-cygwin-debuggable kernel.  I apologize for not
single-stepping this and investigating more thoroughly, but I've got a
bunch of papers to grade tonight; I won't be able to return to this
until tomorrow night at the earliest, but I figured I post my very
preliminary experience

At the time of the crash, the stack contains:

cygwin_crt0
dll_crt0(per_process *)
_dll_crt0
dll_crt0_1(void)
pinfo_init(char **, int)
environ_init(char **, int)
posify(char **, char const *)
getwinenv(char const *, char const *)
getenv
my_findenv(char const *, int *)
strncmp

SIGSERV occurs at line 119 of strncmp.c ( newlib/libc/string/ ?)

local variables window contains:
  s1 (char *) 0x12021604    <Address 0x12021604 out of bounds>
  s2 (char *) 0x61007432   "TEMP="
  n                        3
  s1 (char *) 0x12021604    <Address 0x12021604 out of bounds>
  s2 (char *) 0x61007432   "TEMP="
  n                        3
  a1  (a structure)        (long unsigned int *) 0x61007436
  a2  (a structure)        (long unsigned int *) 0x4

stackdump is:
