  It could be a NOD32 issue, to judge by the trouble it's been causing
elsewhere today:

http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2007-08/msg00824.html
[and http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2007-08/msg00800.html ]

  Looks like you'd need to try actually uninstalling it before you can be sure
whether it's the cause of the problem or not.
