I now have 1.7.1

The problem I reported in this thread is still there.

Any other thoughts?

Oops, sorry about the PPIOSPE mistake.

Thanks for the suggestion.  I'll try it out and let you know the result.

There's no such thing as an overall distro version.  But there IS such a thing as the version of cygwin1.dll.

You are running cygwin1.dll version 1.5.25.  But the latest is 1.7.1.
Upgrading will probably resolve your problem.  Run setup.exe from cygwin.com.
