Image fuction bug in Octave-3.2 in Vista x86

When using octave in Windows Vista with a fresh install of Cygwin 1.7.5, 
executing the image function causes octave to crash immediately and 
produce a dump. On the same machine, after being told by someone that 
the problem wasn't present when they ran Cygwin on their Windows XP 
system, I installed Cygwin on Windows XP x86 inside of a VirtualBox and 
upon executing octave and trying the image function, there was no crash.

I am using Windows Vista x86 on an AMD Turion 64x2 processor. An output 
from one of the terminals in which I tried executing octave can be found 
at http://pastebin.com/m7SS1MwV .

Aside from a fresh installation, I also copied my Cygwin installation to 
the virtual machine and the image function ran without producing any 
crashes.
