1.5.13/14: Problems with Service running under SYSTEM account

I'm having problems running my service under CYGWIN 1.5.13/14. The service
runs under the local system account and takes a filename via the service's
command line. This filename is then opened using fopen. If I revert to
CYGWIN 1.5.12, fopen can read the file. However when I try using 1.5.13/14
(and today's build), it fails with "Bad file descriptor". 

If I change the service to run under a non-system account (or run the
process on the command line), fopen can read the file under 1.5.13/14. 

Any ideas why CYGWIN no longer likes the SYSTEM account?

Thanks
Kevin
