This sounds like a problem in cygwin 1.5.24 with forking in general on xp64, and not a problem in bash. Therefore, your advice to use bash's igncr is a red herring. I personally don't have access to xp64, so I can't offer much help on this front. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
