FWIW, I cannot reproduce the above problem under:

    $ cygcheck -cd cygwin python
    Cygwin Package Information
    Package              Version        
    cygwin               1.5.5-1        
    python               2.3.2-1

and

    Windows 2000 SP4

What Cygwin, Python, Windows versions are you using?

Have you tried a recent Cygwin snapshot?  Some pthread bugs have been
fixed since 1.5.5-1.

What does the above mean?  Under Win32 Python?  Or, under cmd.exe?

Sorry, I don't know.
