Cygwin1.5 also hangs on test_3_join_in_forked_from_thread.
Cygwin1.7 + following snapshot doesn't hang but
http://cygwin.com/snapshots/cygwin1-20080929.dll.bz2
fails with following message.

======================================================================
FAIL: test_3_join_in_forked_from_thread (__main__.ThreadJoinOnShutdown)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "Lib/test/test_threading.py", line 400, in
test_3_join_in_forked_from_thr
ead
    self._run_and_join(script)
  File "Lib/test/test_threading.py", line 342, in _run_and_join
    self.assertEqual(data, "end of main\nend of thread\n")
AssertionError: '' != 'end of main\nend of thread\n'

If stdout is unbuffered mode,
$ export PYTHONUNBUFFERED=x
test passes.
