Folks:

I was just reading the 1.7 announcements:

http://cygwin.com/1.7/cygwin-ug-net/ov-new1.7.html

This looks really good!  Way to go.

How can I find out more about this item:

- Reworked pipe implementation which uses overlapped IO to create=20=20
more reliable interruptible pipes and fifos.

I have a problem with pipes (stdin/stdout in a subprocess) [1] which=20=20
I haven't been able to narrow down into a minimal test case, and I=20=20
would like to learn more about the changes that went into that "more=20=20
reliable pipes".

Thanks!

Regards,

Zooko
