I have had the same problem for months with no way to fix it. I have
tried everything I know so I tried this.

After adding this to my .bash_profile and starting Cygwin, I get the
following message

bash: igncr: invalid option name
bash: set: igncr: invalid option name

So it does not see this as a valid option. Am I missing something? 

Regards,

Mark
