The crash turned out to be infinite recursion in our path handling code
while trying to build up some paths.  This appears to be a result of the
fact that the Boost filesystem library shipped with Cygwin has been built[0]
to use Windows-style paths rather than POSIX-style.

I've got a local hack to work around this problem, but it'll become obsolete
once a fixed build of the Boost filesystem library is available for Cygwin.
