Subject: cpp0 unable to write to stdout or stderr

Hello:

In the standard hello world program:

	#include <stdio.h>

	main()
	{
		printf("Hello, world!\n");
	}

I was getting no .exe with:

	gcc hello.c -o hello.exe

I began to break down the compilation steps to see where the compile was 
failing.

I got lucky when I did:

	% cpp hello.c

and got no output. I did an:

	% strace -f cpp hello.c >& cpp.out

and I saw the following towards the end of the strace output:

   88  348315 [main] cpp0 604 _close: close (4)
   84  348399 [main] cpp0 604 fhandler_base::close: handle 0x110
  117  348516 [main] cpp0 604 _close: 0 = close (4)
86118  434634 [main] cpp0 604 _write: -1 = write (1, 0xA015840, 12553)	<===
  152  434786 [main] cpp0 604 _write: -1 = write (2, 0x242F284, 30)	<===
  112  434898 [main] cpp0 604 do_exit: do_exit (33)
   96  434994 [main] cpp0 604 void: 0x0 = signal (20, 0x1)
   92  435086 [main] cpp0 604 void: 0x0 = signal (1, 0x1)
   92  435178 [main] cpp0 604 void: 0x0 = signal (2, 0x1)
   91  435269 [main] cpp0 604 void: 0x0 = signal (3, 0x1)

Notice that the writes returned -1 to both stdout and stderr.

I tried this on two other machines, another Win2000 and a WinXP Pro. Both 
were successful as was the compilation.

I removed and reinstalled cygwin but to no avail.

I also ran cpp0 as

	% /lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/2.95.3-5/cpp0.exe -I/usr/include hellow.c

and it ran just fine.

Here are the cygcheck specific:
