Jon,
I noted that the problem was already present sometime ago
https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2015-10/msg00122.html

and supposed to be solved.
However it seems arisen again

  $ cat getcwd.c
#include <limits.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int
main ()
{
    char buf[PATH_MAX];
    getcwd (buf, PATH_MAX);
}

$ gcc getcwd.c

$ nm -l a.exe

nm: Dwarf Error: Could not find abbrev number 85.
....


Using latest test versions make no difference

$ cygcheck -c gcc-core binutils
