I've applied a patch to Cygwin which should workaround what appears to
be a compatibility bug in WOW64 on Vista 64.  If you want details, see
the huge comment in the sources, file dcrt0.cc, get_cygwin_startup_info().

Please try the latest snapshot DLL from http://cygwin.com/snapshots/

Note that this snapshot will show weird directory related behaviour when
trying to run tclsh, gdb -w resp. insight, or strace.  This is the
result of another change and has nothing to do with Vista 64.

as for that vista32 issue i was having, i let it sit around for a while, and got this:

5 [main] zsh 5996 C:\cygwin\bin\zsh.exe: *** fatal error - unable to remap C:\cygwin\lib\zsh\4.3.2\zsh\zutil.dll to same address as parent
(0x290000) != 0x360000
5 [main] zsh 4372 child_info::sync: wait failed, pid 5996, Win32 error 183
618 [main] zsh 4372 fork: child 5996 - died waiting for dll loading, errno 11


Did you rebase?
