It appears that Dann Corbit has filed a MinGW bug on this, with accurate problem description, but he received a less than stellar response. See https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php? func=detail&aid=931263&group_id=2435&atid=102435 (Despite previous speculation, he did indicate that the problem is intermittent, not constant).
