Problem with bash command substitution?

I discovered that bash is hanging on the following line in my .bash_profile:
export NODE=$(hostname | tr 'A-Z' 'a-z')
If I type
hostname | tr 'A-Z' 'a-z'
on the command line, it returns immediately with the results I expect. It only
seems to hang inside the $() or `` command substitution mechanism. I currently
have
CYGWIN=tty notitle glob ntea nontsec
and I have all text mounts. I'm using the latest snapshot. Has anyone else seen
this behavior?
