Unfortunately, I don't have that much to report:

    1. It appears that Cygwin Python is crashing without even generating
       the normal Cygwin stackdump file.

    2. When run inside of gdb and I get reproducible SEGVs when
       executing test_poll and test_popen (if test_poll is excluded).
       The SEGVs are inside of Cygwin so I will have to build a
       debuggable Cygwin DLL before I can dig deeper.  At first glance,
       it doesn't look like Python is passing garbage into Cygwin.  See
       attached for some backtraces, if interested.

    3. I am observing the same (or at least similar) behavior that Tim
       is seeing with Win32 Python.

I will try to do some debugging over the weekend but I may not have more
until Monday.
