slow bash spawn

The recent setup.exe update has caused bash.exe to have startup times approx.
10x longer than before. sh.exe starts pretty quickly but bash.exe via
cygwin.bat takes ~30 seconds to start. Took just a couple of seconds before.
Cpu is nowhere near pinned, hovering around 3% or 5%.
Each bash process spawn from within bash takes a long time as well
making ./configure and make take a lot longer than before.
Similar problem here: http://www.nabble.com/Slow-compile-issue-with-cygwin-
make-since-v1.5.17-t3235008.html
Interestingly enough, sh.exe spawns relatively quickly.
Anyone else had similar problems or, more importantly, found a solution?
Running XP sp2 on a fresh, plain vanilla cygwin install. antivirus is not the
problem as bash started just fine on cygwin release just a few weeks ago.
TIA,
Marc
