ash stackdump in cygwin 1.3.3-2

There's a problem with sh's default PATH. Using bash's "exec -c" builtin
to run a command with no environment:
bash-2.05$ (exec -c sh -c 'export PATH; ls')
0 [main] sh 8724 open_stackdumpfile: Dumping stack trace to sh.exe.stackdump
bash-2.05$
It's the "export" that seems to cause the problem:
bash-2.0.5$ (exec -c sh)
$ set
PS1=$
PS2=>
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin
IFS=
$ export PATH
$ ls
0 [main] sh 8840 open_stackdumpfile: Dumping stack trace to sh.exe.stackdump
$
Hmmm.
