Cygwin shell eats Windows exceptions?

Hi,
I'm trying to run my Windows C++ application which has a call to DebugBreak() to bring up the popup asking if you want to debug this application or terminate it. If I run the program within Cygwin, the program just exits.
If I run the application from a Windows command prompt, I get the Windows popup that I'm expecting. It seems that the Cygwin shell is eating exceptions (sigsegv or similar signals?). Is there a way for me to disable this behavior?
