There are some discussions on cygwin mailing list about this issue,
you should go and take a look. Basically, the latest released
cygwin.dll (?) has some problem (there is also saying they
cygwin-emacs binary has some problem that might be related). There are
some cygwin.dll snapshots in the past week avaiable that reportedly
fixed the problem (an infinite loop somewhere), but I will just wait
untill the next cygwin release, and use NT-emacs in the meantime.
