gdb said that the failure was coming from libxcb-1.dll so I rebuilt libxcb-1.dll with debugging information and with a version of libcygwin.a containing debugging symbols.
The fix for the problem wasn't immediately obvious and it is very hacky. I hope it can be removed in a couple of years when everything that was built using a buggy version of libcygwin.a is gone. The problem came from one of the X libraries that, if it had been relinked recently, would not have manifested a problem. I'm embarrassed to admit that I didn't record which library had the problem, though. Tracking it down in gdb proved to be sort of time-consuming and now the window with the information is gone.
I can say that any DLL built with cygwin-1.7.0-51 - cygwin-1.7.0-56 is probably suspect. That's 2009-07-13 - 2009-08-13 .
