I have seen very similar effects on my Win7-64 box. I can force the problem here just be running "ccrypt", though, I do not need to use "make -j4". I assume it has to do with the Windows 64 bit problems of Cygwin (search the ML archives for that). For me, this is the first machine since years where I do not use Cygwin because of this issue.
