I'm running cygwin 1.7.0(0.212/5/3), bash 3.2.49(23), mintty 0.4.4.  I use C:\cygwin\bin\mintty.exe - and get a terminal session. I then press shift F12. The window just lock up and the Windows Task Manager shows bash.exe using 50% of cpu. When I close the hung window, bash.exe task is gone and cpu usage back to normal. When I use the cygwin console, this problem does not happen. Not sure whether this problem has been reported yet. Thanks.

Eric.
