Another pipe-related problem?

Running on Windows-10 21H1

With Cygwin 3.3.0 and 3.3.1 I get a hang every time I try to launch XEmacs:

This is an old executable, has worked since 2015 (!), but recompiling
didn't help.  Reverting to 3.2 lets it run again.

I can try to debug further if instructed in how to do so, but
constructing a simple test case is beyond me...
