Unfortunately this change has been found to introduce a bug: setting the window title no longer works when the codepage is set to one of the ISO8859 codepages. One of those is normally set as the default, so this will affect most users. Therefore, better hold off on updating mintty until a fix is available. Should you have updated already, you can work around the issue by setting the codepage to one of the Windows codepages, e.g. 1252 for "Western" users. Apologies for releasing with such an obvious bug.
