Unless you built winpcap as a Cygwin application, I don't think you
should expect this to work.  The winpcap as downloaded from their site
is a native library (i.e. MSVCRT) and so signal handling for Cygwin
signals is bound to have strange effects, on account of MSVCRT having a
much different and restricted view of what a signal is.
