A quick bit of experimentation shows this is related to the bash-completion package. If that's installed, you'll see the above behaviour. If it's not installed, everything works as expected. If you don't need it, uninstalling bash-completion appears to be a work-around for me. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
