Hi Cygwin friends and users,
I released another version of Cygwin. The version number is 2.1.0-1.
What's new:
-----------
- Handle pthread stacksizes as in GLibc: Default to RLIMIT_STACK resource.
Allow to set RLIMIT_STACK via setrlimit. Default RLIMIT_STACK to value
from executable header as described on
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms686774.aspx
Default stacksize to 2 Megs in case RLIMIT_STACK is set to RLIM_INFINITY.
- First cut of an implementation to allow signal handlers running on an
alternate signal stack.
- New API sigaltstack, plus definitions for SA_ONSTACK, SS_ONSTACK, SS_DISABLE,
MINSIGSTKSZ, SIGSTKSZ.
- New API: sethostname.
Bug Fixes
---------
- Enable non-SA_RESTART behaviour on threads other than main thread.

- Fix a crash on 64 bit XP/2003 when opening /proc/$PID/maps.
- Apparently on some Windows systems timezones differ in case
from the standard. Fix the tzset tool to check case-insensitive.

Have fun,
