By the way, I'd like to take the opportunity to thank Peter Castro for the Cygwin Time Machine (http://www.fruitbat.org/Cygwin/#cygwintimemachine). The bisection I did, spanning a period of about 4 years, would have been virtually impossible without it.Huh. I was thinking of git bisect. It's incredibly helpful. But, yes, all power to the Cygwin time machine :)
I first used the time machine to narrow down the problem to between 1.7.35 and 2.0.0. Then I used git bisect to finish the job. But even for that I needed the time machine; for example, I needed an old version of the w32api headers in order to build an old cygwin1.dll.
