The win9x debugging "rule of the game" :

if your program crash under win9x then
     test your program under NT
     if your program crash under winNT then
        your program may have bugs (*)
     else
        another win9x unstability evidence
     endif
endif

(*) win9x and winNT win32 API are differents...

I'm very happy micro$oft dropped the infamous win 9x line of products 
(win95, 95osr2, 95osr2.5, 98, 98exted, millenium). With the win Nt line 
(win2K=NT5.0, winXP=NT5.1), things are going better...

Cygwin is an emulator, allways prefer (when you can) native win32 
executables, built with (for example) mingw32 compiler...
