I've noticed a strange problem with bash pipelines in Cygwin that
might indicate some sort of race condition. I cannot reproduce the
problem on a Linux system, but it seems easy to reproduce in Cygwin.

I am running Cygwin on Windows XP (service pack 3).
$ uname -srv
CYGWIN_NT-5.1 1.5.25(0.156/4/2) 2008-06-12 19:34
Want to try the test again with the upcoming Cygwin 1.7 release?
<http://cygwin.com/#beta-test> 1.5.x is will be replaced by it very
shortly so unless the problem is still visible in 1.7, it's not likely
to spark much investigation. Just FYI.
