Cygwin / Windows 7 Heap Problems


Hey, I'm wondering if there are any cygwin gurus who can shed some light on
crashes that look to be Windows7 64bit compatibility-related.  When running
a perl script through cygwin/bash on a fresh windows 7 64-bit install, I
encounter errors similar to what others have corrected using "rebaseall". 
These errors occur erratically, and cannot be reproduced every attempt.  I
have successfully rebased a few times before (through ash), which only lead
to the errors happening less frequently (or possibly some old errors being
corrected).

A snippet of the errors I'm running into are:

      2 [main] perl 2312 C:\cygwin\bin\perl.exe: *** fatal error - couldn't
allocate heap, Win32 error 487, base 0x1310000, top 0x154A000, reserve_size
2330624, allocsize 2334720, page_const 4096
6119825 [main] perl 576 fork: child -1 - died waiting for longjmp before
initialization, retry 0, exit code 0x100, errno 11

7717301 [main] perl 1540 fork: child -1 - died waiting for longjmp before
initialization, retry 0, exit code 0x100, errno 11
      2 [main] svn 632 C:\cygwin\bin\svn.exe: *** fatal error - couldn't
allocate heap, Win32 error 487, base 0xA70000, top 0xC20000, reserve_size
1765376, allocsize 1769472, page_const 4096
      1 [main] svn 720 fork: child -1 - died waiting for longjmp before
initialization, retry 0, exit code 0x100, errno 11
svn: Can't create tunnel: Resource temporarily unavailable

I have no problems running this script on other computers' cygwin
installations, so I suspect the conflict lies with windows 7 (64bit) and
cygwin.  Our script is just a standard set of system calls (including svn).

I'm using the latest cygwin version - output from uname -a is:
CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW64 [computername] 1.7.5(0.225/5/3) 2010-04-12 19:07 i686
Cygwin

Any suggestions / comments would be appreciated!
