I took the textfile from the attachment which has actually two \r\n at the end which are 78 bytes at all: $ expand textfile.txt This is a text file created with Notepad. It has DOS (CRLF) line endings. $ od -Ad -tc textfile.txt 0000000 T h i s i s a t e x t f 0000016 i l e c r e a t e d w i t h 0000032 N o t e p a d . \r \n I t h a 0000048 s D O S ( C R L F ) l i n 0000064 e e n d i n g s . \r \n \r \n 0000078 This is on a textmode mount and I see the same on a binmode mount. It seems that you have updated Cygwin to 1.5.12, but you have not updated fileutils/sh-utils/textutils, please install coreutils to replace all these three packages.
