Does jheatbugs work?  It could be a problem with your model where 
objects are being returned and accumulating in the directory that 
related Java and Objective C objects.  Or, perhaps you are trying to 
drop some object that has already been dropped. 

There's currently a bug in Cygwin that makes it impossible to load 
Cygwin in Java, and thus Swarm in Java.  If someone wanted to write a 
test case for a non-Swarm, minimal, DLL load in Java that displayed the 
problem, the Cygwin folks would probably fix it.  The old Windows 
binaries (including 2.1.1) can be considered unsupported.   If you need 
something working now, I'd use Linux or Solaris.
