The message that you are replying to mentions a change in the behavior of default mutexes which was made to make cygwin jive with linux. >I know you weren't going to bother looking into it, but seeing as >though you made a general request for testing updates relating to the >new dll version, I thought it useful and relevant to put in my two >cents. > >maybe in the future I wont even do that... Hmm. If you want to send a "still broken" message every time I ask people to check a snapshot, please feel free. I was trying to tell you when and how it would be useful for you to report problems so that you wouldn't have to bother sending email which was basically a no-op. It's your choice, of course, as to when and how often you choose to send messages but I thought that delineating what was useful and what wasn't would be helpful. cgf -- 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/
