It shows quite reproducible failure of rmtree(), mostly at the rmdir calls, but even more worryingly there are consistent unlink failures also.
I kinda suspect that what you are looking at is a problem with the delayed-unlinking feature that we built to cope with Windows' inability to unlink open files, ie, it's being a little too slow to do the unlinks. Would you refresh my memory about exactly where and when the unlink happens if the initial try fails?
You can have a look into the cygwin sources how we do that :) kinda problematic.

in short:
if the return status of DeleteFileA() is ERROR_SHARING_VIOLATION, defer deletion until the end of the process.
but win95 reports ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED and not ERROR_SHARING_VIOLATION as NT does.
