It's a strange problem: there was a Windows Whistler Server machine (from what I understand this is a beta version of the Windows XP Server OS) which was running cygwin-1.3.N (I forgot exactly, but N=1, 2, or 3).
Then the OS was upgraded to the next beta version (I am told that the XP Server has not been released yet). After that upgrade Cygwin and just about anything in the /bin directory just stopped working: bash hangs indefinitely (or very long, w.o. doing anything), cygcheck exits right away w.o. printing anything, tcsh crashes, ls hangs long before not doing anything, etc .... I wiped out the all cygwin reg keys, wiped the whole installation and installed 1.3.4 from scratch (yes, I know that 1.3.5 is the most recent one, but the inst source I used has been used to install on a bunch of XP and 2000 machines around and works there just fine). Same thing - nothing runs! Any ideas?
