I might suggest that you go to the mailing list archives and do a search.
Both of these topics have been abused to death on the list in the last
month.  See http://sourceware.cygnus.com/ml/cygwin/ and
http://www.delorie.com/archives/ for two different archive interfaces.

This thread addresses what might be causing your 'fault'.
	
http://www.delorie.com/archives/search.cgi?search=Exception+Handling+Broken& ;
since=month&db=cygwin

And a search for 'gdb' will yeild enough reading material for the next
month.
