sounds like the stack size could be the problem.
I get the following info in cygwin :
ulimit -s
2047
ulimit -s 8000
bash: ulimit: stack size: cannot modify limit: invalid argument

from the following mail on the cygwin list:
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2003-03/msg01394.html

This is the real answer. The system call to which the ulimit shell built-in 
delegates its work is not implemented in Cygwin.

I believe link-time is the only way to override the default stack allotment is 
during compilation (or linking, as the case may be): E.g. (from a message by 
Gerrit P. Haase, subject "Re: increase stacksize" sent Wed, 17 Jul 2002

gcc -Wl,--stack,8388608 -o your.exe your.source.c
