problems with dlopen

If your suspicion is correct, then simply moving "state = 1" to before
the call of dlopen should do the trick, i.e.:

                case 0:
                        state = 1;
                        handle = dlopen("cygwin1.dll", RTLD_NOW);
                        orig_malloc = (void *(*)(size_t)) dlsym (handle, "malloc");
                        /*fall through*/
