No need for that. The change takes effect immediately and applies to all
new processes subsequently created. Exiting your existing cygwin apps and
restarting them is all you need. Obviously, rebooting makes sure that you
didn't forget any background processes or services, but it's still a
sledgehammer-vs-nut scenario.
