Just to follow this up, I downloaded a few builds from graphicall.org,
from before and after the dates of my own builds, and they all gave
similar performance as my new, slower build. I also just tried
compiling with MSVC (with optimisations) and it gave faster
performance than my old fast cygwin build.

So I guess this points to being something compiler related, chris want
in IRC suggested that maybe it was a bug in the old GCC in cygwin. So,
false alarm, no coders to blame :)
