This may be relevant, from Lib/test/test_b1.py:
# Note: This test is expected to SEGV under Cygwin 1.3.12 or
# earlier due to a newlib bug. See the following mailing list
# thread for the details:

In Cygwin, malloc() was treating the size as signed which caused a
crash. Perhaps you are experiencing something similar? Have you
tried with the latest Cygwin?
