insight crashed under cygwin

[Joerg Rapka]

Hello

I load the application "arm-ecos-elf-insight.exe" into cygwin GDB and I 
got immediately the GDB warning message:
Program received signal SIGSEV, segmentation fault.
Then neither registers can be read nor a stack backtrace is possible (no 
stack available).
The same happens to all other "EXE" generated by the build process of
insight (e.g. arm-ecos-elf-gdb.exe, cygitclsh30.exe, tix4180.exe, etc.).
NOTE:
I'm able to have a successful build of cross tools binutils, gcc, 
gdb-only for target "arm-ecos-elf". Only cross build of insight fails.

Any special requirements for building any cross "insight" under cygwin?

Best regards,
Joerg
