I tried it with 1.5.19 and 1.5.17 and got the same result.

When I strace python, I get a bit surprising output:

D:\cygwin\home\Krzysiek>strace python
--- Process 52048, exception 40000005 at 7C81EB33
--- Process 52048, exception 40000005 at 7C81EB33
--- Process 52048, exception 40000005 at 7C81EB33
[...]

I might go out on a limb here, but I got similar responses from xmgrace until I did a "rebaseall". That fixed it.

;-) Take a look at the output from

file `which python`

Might also be a broken python executable ...
