Yes, downloading and rebuilding helps. The below, before and after:

BEFORE (cygwin-binary downloaded from www.ocaml.org):

data$ ocaml.exe
        Objective Caml version 3.01

# fdas
  ;;
      0 [main] ocaml 1604 handle_exceptions: Exception:
STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION
  80086 [main] ocaml 1604 stackdump: Dumping stack trace to
ocamlrun.exe.stackdump
bash: [1516: 1] tcsetattr: Not a character device
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

AFTER (source downloaded and compiled locally using very up-to-date cygwin):

data$ ocaml.exe
        Objective Caml version 3.01

# fdas
  ;;
Characters 0-4:
Unbound value fdas
# #quit;;
data$

Hi,

I guess I went too fast sending my message yesterday. I had rebuilt a
cvs Ocaml on a couple months old cygwin and it did not work. Then I
got a new cygwin and it still did not work. This morning I rebuilt
Ocaml on the new cygwin and it does work.
