I don't think that will be needed, cygwin1-3.6.0-0.32.g10c8c1cf4f94.dll seems to solve the issue. I can reproduce with cygwin1-3.5.0-1.dll, but not with 3.4.10-1, nor any dll after 3.6.0-0.32.g10c8c1cf4f94. (I tried the whole range, from 3.6.0-0.32.g10c8c1cf4f94 through 3.6.0-0.58.g4af5f9d51e1d.dll and they all work.) My best guess is on https://www.cygwin.com/cgit/newlib-cygwin/commit/?id=084f848ab9a51d0125491a6f2a7a741f9df73218 ("Cygwin: console: Fix exit code for non-cygwin process") by Takashi Yano, who I've CC'd for confirmation. Indeed, the specific ingredient for my issue was starting a non Cygwin console binary such as cmd.exe. -Dimitry -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
