I have had the same problem but thought I was only doing something
wrong. As you have the same problerm I will do the following:

- Send you a patched version to your address
- Attach the patch I did to this mail. The patch works with the
patch-2.5 release from ftp.gnu.org but should also work with the
version from cygwin

Greetings,
