Confirmed. Either - changing to 'best appearance' (visual effects) or - changing to 'Windows 7' (personalization) does the trick ... i.e. mintty v211 (and v212 as modified by me, but W/O removing the invocation of update_transparency() ) will not crash Changing back to "my default" will make them crash again.
