Not to be a total brown nose, but I've been using cygwin for a long time 
and this is only the second time I've had to resort to a snapshot to 
solve a problem. In other words cygwin is normally stable enough so I 
don't think to try a snapshot.

I should have tried it before posting.

At least I learned how to build a debug version of the binutils package 
on cygwin.

Thanks again, and I forgot to thank René Berber for his input,
Pete
