Unfortunately I'm not intimately familiar with Cygwin sources. I was assuming that someone who actually understands what the setup is doing could suggest places to look at, perhaps some log files or error dumps. I couldn't find any useful logs, the only one that I've found wasn't flushed and had size 0, and looking at system calls gave me no hints because "00ash.sh" doesn't apparently generate any.
Surely, the setup must leave some traces of its activities. I'd be happy to contribute some time and energy to this opensource effort by collecting information about a possible bug, but I can't afford to become expert on Cygwin. I was hoping someone who is already an expert can provide hints. If not, that's perfectly fine. I can live without Cygwin. What is the purpose of "00ash.sh", and what kind of system calls does it attempt at making? Surely, it must be something very unusual because I've got all sorts of win32 apps running on this machine without any glitch. It has to be related to the fact that it runs on WoWx64, for I verified that x32 doesn't have such problem. I'd imagine there'd be only a handful of places in Cygwin that require the sort of unusual functionality from the OS that 99% other apps don't need, and if we further narrow it down to the post-install setup, that'd be even less.
