"The reason we point all this out is that the requirements for
restarting things are not quite as stringent as when you replace
cygwin1.dll. If you have three process trees, you have three independent
copies of the nsswitch information. You do not need to restart any of
them for a new process tree to see the changes, but until each restarts,
they will not see the change."
EDIT, replace last sentence:
"If you start a fresh process tree, it will see the changes. As long as
any process in an existing process tree remains running, all processes
in that tree will continue to use the old information."
