Since the latest locale-related changes, the default codepage after starting cygwin _without_ explicit setting (of a locale variable) seems to have changed from CP1252 ("Windows ANSI") to ISO 8859-1 ("Latin 1"). Was this change on purpose? Maybe the previous default should be kept, to meet backwards compatibility expectations of 1.5 users.
