cygwin 1.3.3: cannot debug anymore

[Frederic Devernay <Frederic dot Devernay at sophia dot inria dot fr>]

Since I upgraded to cygwin-1.3.3, I keep getting:

gdb: unknown target exception 0x000006d1 at 0x77e7f142

Program received signal ?, Unknown signal.
0x77e7f142 in _libuser32_a_iname ()

whenever starting a program under gdb. Same happens with the latest
gdb snapshot (20010918), and the problem is solved if I go back to
1.3.2.

This problem seems to have happened quite a few times in the past
under w2k, but nobody ever reported a solution (in fact, it seems that
cygwin developpers couldn't reproduce the problem).

Of course, gdb can even not debug itself in this case... how can I
help more?
