Any bloda running around ?

I will bet on some other program interfering on cygwin
program execution or dll loading.

As example, recently strace is segfaulting on my W7 64 bit,
and I am almost sure Symantec is the guilty guy.

Check also if all the DLL needed by wget, curl, ssh, procps, top, gawk
are still there. I saw case where the Antivirus removed the dll's
without big notice.
