nop, I see this happen even for a bare nacked apache without any extra
modules.

can you please issue the following to your httpd processes:

  $ /usr/sbin/ab -i -r 1000 http://localhost/

this will hit your apache with 1000 HTTP HEAD requests. After this has
done wait some seconds and re-do.

This should cause the httpd childs to 'hang'. And even a 'telnet
localhost 80' will either give you no TCP connect or if, you can enter
a HTTP request but will never get a response.

Ok, just to be sure: which cygwin version and OS are you running?
