(Resending because it complained about my inadvertently using html.) My Cygwin Perl is 5.14.2. I don't have a link to a report. I never filed a bug report, but we had an email exchange about this starting on 1/13/12. My script is still having occasional problems, but it's not dumping core. I'll have to do some more debugging to see what I can see.
