so it is not the DLL alone and it is not the locale
that is causing the problem you see.

Please provide the cygcheck.out as attachment

Which version of Julia are you running ?
How are you running Julia?
Do you have any custom user setup in Julia?
I just installed it and only installed the DataFrames package.

Can you install a parallel Cygwin with only Base category ?
I use C:\cygwin64T for my parallel Cygwin installation.
This will help to check if a fresh version without any
user customization and minimal packages works.
(I had problem with my X server and I found it was a
remain of old settings that worked for years)

any BLODA installed ?
