sorry, no. Even though I have Admin I am unable to override this. Please note that all previous versions of cygwin1.dll (<3.3.3) are not interfered with. Though if this is indeed Sentinel, it does seem to *sporadically* kill threads launched under strace regardless of cygwin DLL version all the way back to 3.1.7.
