I recall some problem of this sort in the near past, but cannot remember
exactly what it was. Code in advice.el creates a wrapper for the
"documentation" function, which it renames to ad-Orig-documentation.
For some reason 5 arguments are being passed when the original function
expects only 1 or 2.
Are you running the very latest version of Cygwin emacs? It has all the LISP
files recompiled, which I believed fixed some sort of problem of this kind.
You might try running the elisp expression (ad-Orig-documentation 'documentation-property t)
and see if you get back the documentation string for the named function.

Never heard of this. The name appears in the emacs lisp source as part
of some sort of TeX support software.
