To reproduce the issue:
1. Run Cygwin.bat to open a Cygwin shell in the "Command Prompt" terminal
2. Run some command, such as "echo test"
3. Click the Windows "x" button in the top-right corner of the terminal

The terminal closes, but `$HOME/.bash_history` is not updated to include
the "echo test" command.
Interestingly, when using mintty, the shell history is indeed saved when
the "x" button is pressed.

I looked into this problem, and found cygwin sends SIGHUP on
window closure, however, bash is terminated before SIGHUP is
processed.

The following patch solves the issue, however, I wonder if
there is better way to wait completion of signal handling.

diff --git a/winsup/cygwin/exceptions.cc b/winsup/cygwin/exceptions.cc

          return FALSE;
        }
        if (!saw_close && type == CTRL_LOGOFF_EVENT)

I hope that's 100ms not 100s! Some comments would be good here.
