Those two issues need to be fixed. And yes, they are regressions from my 
Cygwin 1.7.7 setup where they pass consistently, just about every day. 
See <http://www.pgbuildfarm.org/cgi-bin/show_history.pl?nm=brolga&br=HEAD>

You don't get to choose which regression tests you're going to pass and 
which you're not. Disabling the tests or providing nonsensical results 
files are unacceptable. This is a Cygwin behavior issue and needs to be 
fixed.
