Hi, I have the problem that I get a segmentation fault on the newer versions of the cygwin1.dll when debugging and a STATUS_STACK_OVERFLOW exception when running without debugger. I did an update of my cygwin stuff on Monday, and I'm using the latest snapshot dll. I'm quite sure it has something to do with the dll, because I did clean and rebuild with newest cygwin versions. Since this wasn't working, I got my old dll (from 29.03.2011) and it worked again. I tried some other snapshot versions (up to 04.06.2011, since there are no old ones), but none of them worked.
If I can get older snapshot versions, I might be able to track it down. But then again stack problems are hard to catch. I compiled my code with -fstack-protector-all --param ssp-buffer-size=4, but this didn't help me so far (well, maybe I'm not using it right.).

I wasn't able to step into XCP_XmlResp_Ok. I checked the address of XCP_XmlResp_Ok, it stays the same from the program start.
