Re: cmp (or echo) bug?

Hi!

In Cygwin terminal (bash) I typed:

cmp  <(echo echo1)  <(echo echo2)

only on 32bit, on 64 I see

$ cmp  <(echo echo1)  <(echo echo2)
/dev/fd/63 /dev/fd/62 differ: byte 5, line 1

I suspect a timing issue, and the result is not well defined


This does not print anything.
Not even with -b.

On Linux (Ubuntu 12.04 in VMWare) it reports that the inputs are different.

Bug?
Or am I missing something?

I just updated to latest version of cygwin, to be sure.
32 bit version.
On Windows 8.1 Pro x64 (all updates)

David
