Indeed. Mine was a bit more complex (see
<http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-09/msg00419.html>), but I think it may
have enabled some features that this one doesn't. In any case, I think
the attach feature won't work with this patch either.
Ron, feel free to use any bits of the above patch you may find useful.
