OK. I see that the bug report page instructs people not to send reports from 3rd party software, that's good. Cygwin's version being a port should have all problems reported to the Cygwin maintainer (Reini Urban at this time); perhaps this should be added to the bugs page, and in general if anybody uses any port on a given OS, problems should be reported to the maintainer of that port first and, at his discretion, reported upstream if it appears to be a bug coming from the source. >> If it where broken, and for the record I get the same result as you did >> using the latest Cygwin package of clamav, it should be reported to the >> maintainer. >> >> I can report it if you want (even help fixing it), just give me a test case >> that shows that it is broken. > > I'm sure the problem lies in the Cygwin library itself.

Yes, sometimes the library introduces problems, but I haven't seen any that affect clamav for the last couple of years. For the Cygwin maintainer it would be very useful to have access to those reports, as it would be easy to open a bug report against the particular library version.
