Isn't that the same as bug #20179?

There are no symbols in this binary, so you cannot usefully debug it.

> warning: `/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/SYSTEM32/ntdll.dll': Shared library architecture i386:x86-64 is not compatible with target architecture i386.

In addition, you are using a 64-bit Cygwin build of GDB:

> This GDB was configured as "x86_64-pc-cygwin".

to debug a 32-bit native Windows build of Emacs, and encounter
incompatibilities due to that.

I hope you understand those now.

A reproducible recipe, starting from "emacs -Q", together with an Org
file to use, will be greatly appreciated.
