Do you possibly still have enough freedom to set an exclude filter on the
cygwin directory tree? McAfee is notorious for keeping handles to files
transiently open after the application has closed them, and that's very much
the sort of thing that wouldn't cause a problem if the cygwin app was running
slowly but could become a significant race when cygwin gets faster.
