Hi -

It has been noted that the problem might derive from a conflict with
another application (BLODA -
http://cygwin.com/faq/faq.using.html#faq.using.bloda).

But, I am using a clean install of:

Windows Server 2003 Standard R2 X64
Windows Resource Kit Tools
Cygwin

That's all. Further, using the same VM (an exact block level copy),
cygwin  works on one set of hardware and not on another.

It truly does appear to be a hardware dependent problem with bash.

Perhaps.  But it seems to me that the big variable factor here is
the VM.  But leaving that aside for the moment, perhaps you have a
a corrupted '/bin/[.exe'.  Yes, it's just a WAG that really shouldn't
be an issue but given your unique environment, maybe it's worth
checking.  Otherwise, my guess is you're going to need to dig in
and debug this some.  I'd recommend trying a failing operation with
strace and see if the results give you any insight.  Be warned.  This
means you may need to look at Cygwin source to follow what's happening.
