If you're "debugging" you can get the error by stepping into the DLL.

If you are actually capable of making it happen then prove it by
discussing implementation in cygwin-developers and eventually providing
a patch in cygwin-patches.  Otherwise, take Earnie's observation to
heart: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2012-08/msg00257.html

(I'm going to be quoting this a lot)

You aren't making any points by posting YA vague suggestion.
