I currently have my setup/cygpath is a hung state. To try and help out, I
decided to attach gdb to the process and hopefully see if I could get
anything useful. The first thing I did was a ps -W to obtain a process ID
to attach to, then did from my obj build directory I did 'gdb
/bin/cygpath.exe 1736'

gdb didn't complain, and appeared to attach to the process, but wouldn't
give me a prompt to use. No amount of CTRL-C, CTRL-Z, anything would gain a
response from gdb...

In the end I killed off gdb from another shell, and then did a plain and
simple 'ps'.

I'm hoping this is relevant to the people in the know. As you can see, the
cygpath process ID according to this ps has nothing to do with 1736. So,
instead I have attached gdb to the process 164 reported here.
This is giving me a prompt, and I'm sure I can type lots of commands, but my
gdb knowledge is very limited and I don't know what I can request that could
be of any use. My cygwin1.dll and cygpath binaries were built using 'make
CFLAGS_FOR_TARGET=-g CFLAGS=-g > make.log 2>&1' so hopefully has all the
debug information wanted.
I'm leaving everything as is, in case anyone has a set of commands they'd
like run in gdb.
HTH,
Steve Fairbairn
Just for completeness I'll attach the cygcheck requested in the normal
problem reports.
