Strange problem with 2004/2/5 and 2004/2/6 cygwin1.dll snapshots

Hi!

I tried the 2004/2/5 and 2004/2/6 cygwin1.dll snapshots to see if
they "magically" solve my freeze problem, but now I get another problem.

A simple cygpath command fails for both snapshots with:

$ cygpath
       5 [main] ? 1588 cygheap_fixup_in_child: Couldn't reserve space 
for cygwin's heap (0x61680000 <0x410000>) in child, Win32 error 487
C:\cygwin\bin\cygpath.exe (1588): *** m.AllocationBase 0x0, 
m.BaseAddress 0x61680000, m.RegionSize 0x1B00000, m.State 0x10000

$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-5.0 boxy2 1.5.8s(0.110/4/2) 20040206 11:33:08 i686 unknown 
unknown Cygwin

Output of cygcheck is attached.

The funny thing is, cygpath works on a different computer with W2K
with a very similar setup?! Also using the 1.5.5 or 1.5.7 dll doesn't
show this problem.
