Thanks for the report, especially for the test case. I was able to easily reproduce the issue. However, I haven't found the cause until today. I spent 3 days investigating and discovered three bugs that prevent the test case from behaving as expected. I'll submit the patch seriese shotly. -- Takashi Yano <takashi.y...@nifty.ne.jp> -- 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
