Yes, this is issue 51560. Solution: use a newer cygwin snapshot.
<http://cygwin.com/snapshots/>
I know that the 08/28/2005 snapshot works.

This should have given you the idea to try a cygwin snapshot.
If you are really interested, there was a second problem inside cygwin
1.5.18, see <http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2005-08/msg01287.html>
