version it works.
Please avoid http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#TOFU.
Earlier versions of bash did not install a /dev/stdout symlink, but
special cased it directly in bash. It may be that this has always been
broken on cygwin, but because bash was special-casing things instead of
relying on a symlink, no one noticed. But now that bash installs a
/dev/stdout symlink, it would be nice if cygwin could be patched to match
Linux behavior on reopening /dev/stdout.
