Try a binutils from CVS.  There was some funkiness with readonly flags
in binutils.  I don't know if it infects the cygwin version of binutils
or not.

I keep rebuilding binutils in preparation for a new release but that
effort invariably triggers someone sending an interesting new bug or
bugfix to the binutils mailing list so I have been waiting for the code
to settle down.
