Could you attach a cygcheck -s -v -r > cygcheck.out as described here (https://cygwin.com/problems.html) please? My guess at this point is that you have a package installed that for whatever reason is confusing mandb. I apologize for the difficulties. Building the database does quite a bit, but that part of mandb is generally pretty stable. strace doesn't appear to like mandb -c either, or I'd suggest that. -- Chris J.
