emacs (under X11) is working fine since Mar 06 snapshot of
cygwin1.dll. http://cygwin.com/snapshots/

That has not been my experience: I have been tracking the snapshots,
but my emacs still segfaults, dumps core, etc. Hopefully I will get a
chance to build sources and debug soon.

I had the same crashing troubles with Emacs (XP). So I switched to XEmacs. It works good, no crashing ever just that it's CPU hungry (and it shouldn't be started from Start menu links but from a terminal) .
