Why does the receiving child wait in a loop to get killed, rather than just exit()? I presume cygwin has some problem or race condition in the wait loop, kill and wait_process(). The pipe to the parent will read 0 bytes (EOF) on the parent side after the child exits. Although I haven't tried it, I would guess this should be the reliable solution on all platforms. But there must be some good reason the wait loop, kill and wait_process() contortions appeared in the code (maybe some race condition with the remote side?)...
