Under Cygwin 1.5.10, the problem is also there, and *MUCH* worse. tar.exe, gzip.exe and sleep.exe are from *cough* 1.5.10 *cough*. I was told that it doesn't matter as long as the Cygwin DLL is a fresh nightly. I'll replace them with 1.5.12-1's and catch the error again (prolly in a couple of days or so) if that's better? -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
