Cygwin 2.6.1 bash fork errors upon starting mintty

I created a cygcheck -s -r -v file to attach, but sourceware dot org blocked it

Updated Cygwin this morning, getting fork errors (even after
rebooting, (although reboots should not matter)) when starting mintty:

      0 [main] bash 6072 child_info_fork::abort:
C:\cygwin\bin\cygncursesw-10.dll: Loaded to different address:
parent(0x75260000) != child(0x760000)
-bash: fork: retry: Resource temporarily unavailable
      1 [main] bash 11040 child_info_fork::abort:
C:\cygwin\bin\cygncursesw-10.dll: Loaded to different address:
parent(0x75260000) != child(0xEE0000)
-bash: fork: retry: No child processes

CYGWIN_NT-10.0-WOW Keith-PC 2.6.1(0.305/5/3) 2016-12-16 11:50 i686 Cygwin

Unfortunately, the cygcheck attachment was blocked by sourceware dot
org.  What to do now?

Thanks, Cygwin team, for all that you do and the precious little
thanks that you receive.
