I use cygwin=ntsec,
when I reinstalled the entire cygwin suite I got c0000022 errors in perl,
and
when I upgraded to the current X binaries I recieved the same error for Xwin
etc.. I didn't fix the issue with perl - but I was apparently searching the
wrong list archive - as the chmod o+x,g+x,u+x *.dll cmd did fix it for me.
I suspect there is a problem untarring or setting x when cygwin=ntsec.
I don't use cygwin=ntsec at the office, and I had no problems there.
