I'm suspecting this is related to running Cygwin 1.7. In looking back though some notes I started having bash shell problems after upgrading from 1.5 to 1.7. Now on 1.7 if I try to run bash as a login shell it just gets "Bad address" or segfault errors and immediately exits the shell which also probably affects 'ssh'. I don't remember having any bash problems when I was running Cygwin 1.5 on this machine. My notes reflect screen copies showing bash able to run as a login shell without any problem.
