Maybe someone has knowledge to share > about the cause and what to do about this? I'd say this is somehow related to 64-bit Cygwin programs being run by 32-bit native Windows programs. The version which works for you is a 64-bit executable, those that don't are 32-bit. Maybe there are compatibility issues vis-à-vis 64-bit Cygwin. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
