What did you upgrade? Cygwin or Parallel?

That sounds very odd. Removing the stackdump seems like a workaround
not fixing the root cause.

GNU Parallel uses the command 'true' to figure out the maximal command
line size. I do not have access to a cygwin environment, so can you
try:

true x
true [insert 10000 x here]
true [insert 100000 x here]
true [insert 300000 x here]

Do any of these cause a stackdump?
