A couple of problems have been fixed in the recent cygwin snapshots, so
please try one out and report success/failure to cygwin at cygwin dot com.

I'll try to get a 1.3.12 out ASAP but I want to make sure that it fixes as
many problems as possible first.

Snapshot installation instructions:

To install a snapshot:

  1) Download the latest cygwin-20020???.dll.bz2 file from the above
     web page into a temporary directory.

  2) bunzip2 cygwin-20020???.dll.bz2

  3) Stop any running cygwin applications (sshd, inetd, bash, apache, etc.).

  3) copy c:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll c:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll.saf

  4) copy cygwin-2002????.dll c:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll

Obviously, you have to replace the 'c:\cygwin\bin' with the ms-dos path
name of your /bin directory.  You also *must* use Windows tools (e.g.,
"copy" or GUI "drag and drop") to copy the DLL to its new home since you
can't easily overwrite a busy DLL.
