Mike,

I recall reporting some weirdness on Windows 7, originating from the
randomized addressing issue.
(that's what rebase and rebaseall Cygwin utilities are/were fighting).
At that time Cygwin still had Python 2.5.

Is it correct that since then it has fixed itself, as Cygwin folks
found a way to fix these problems?
