apache2 and cygwin- problems running

I am running CYGWIN 1.5.7 on WindowsXP, been having problems getting 
apache2 (2.0.47 & 2.0.48)
to startup and continue running. It just simply shows up on my taskmgr, 
then exits with little fanfair.

I have no issues compiling Apache2, I get the normal .exe errors so I 
simply copy the .exe's left behind over
to the default /usr/local/apache2/bin. I have tried:

'./httpd.exe -k start'
'./httpd.exe -t'
'./httpd.exe -e debug'
'./apachectl start'

I get no errors on the httpd.exe, on the apachectl I get the 'ulimit' 
not available, but nothing else save a 'pid overwritten' message in the 
errors_log.
I have tried the various switches for no shared objects, or all shared 
objects. I have compiled with default prefork as the model, then tried to
change all the paths, thinking it was possible I had wrong server roots.

I've seen that others were fruitfull on getting it to at least run, but 
it just dies on me no matter what ports I set, ip's.
I changed the user/group as well thinking that could be the problem, 
tried SYSTEM, my username and always left group to the default.
I made sure the permissions on the cygwin directory allowed writes, etc.

Lastly, I fell back to running strace.

Help :) I didn't see much about cygserver, or the cygserver use disabled 
in client.
I did however think all I had to do was run the start commands. I of course
have no problem on my BSD machines, so this is the first time apache has 
ever let me down.

Thanks in advance.
