Unable to produce core dumps

I am unable to get the dumper utility to produce a core dump.
My cygwin.bat startup file contains the following:
set CYGWIN=error_start=c:\cygwin\bin\dumper.bat
My dumper.bat file contains the following:
dumper.exe -d %1 %2 %3
pause
The program in question was compiled with the gcc -g option:
main() {
int h;
h = 1 / 0;
}
Upon execution I see the following in the cygwin console:
$ ./div.exe
7 [main] div 2296 handle_exceptions: Error while dumping state (probably corrupted stack)
Arithmetic exception (core dumped)
In the cmd.exe console window that dumper.bat starts I see the following:
C:\cygwin\home\admin>dumper.exe -d C:/cygwin/home/jlambert/div.exe 1884
dumping process #1884 to div.exe.core
setting bfd architecture: No error
C:\cygwin\home\admin>pause
Press any key to continue . . .
Yet no .core file is produced anywhere.
I have also tried using dumper.exe directly with the following setting with the same results.
set CYGWIN=error_start=c:\cygwin\bin\dumper.exe
And I have verified that the process number above is correct.
What am I doing wrong?
I am on the following release:
