Thanks for writing it in the first place.  :-)

> Just to note that the situation is even worse than noted here: as well as being unable to unwind in a signal handler, without this patch gdb also can't unwind from functions inside the cygwin DLL where the call stack passes through these wrappers (which is nearly all of them, which makes debugging problems there even more painful).

Oh, indeed.  I was too focused on the tree, missed the forest.
