bug#17496: frequent crashing on cygwin

[aidalgol]

With 24.3.1 on Cygwin x64 built with NT widgets, I am getting frequent 
crashes, at least once a day.  I get the "Emacs Abort Dialog" asking me 
whether I want to attach GDB.  I rebuilt Emacs from trunk, and the 
problem persisted.  Here is the stack trace after upon attaching (built 
from git commit 5289c43e35275b153cd8003f037e67f24bf22d38):

At Daniel Colascione's suggestion, I will rebuild with optimisations 
turned off and try to get more information out of the next crash.

(I'm going through old bug reports that have unfortunately gotten no
responses yet.)

Are you still seeing this problem in a current Emacs?

There were no responses within a couple of months, so I'm closing this
bug report.  Please reopen if it's still an issue.
