Subject:	select and DOS box click

Hi all,

I was wondering if someone could tell me if the following behavior is
what is expected.

I run the program below with cygwin 1.1.8.  Two strange behavior seems
to occur.

1.  If I click on the DOS box where this program is running, the select
call returns 1.  The output will show this.  But the call to read will
block.  Probably because there is no input from the keyboard.  Is this
the correct behavior?  How do I check only for keyboard input?

Note: clicking on the title bar does not cause this behavior.  It only
happens if you click inside the window.

2.  When I run the program from the DOS prompt and hit Ctrl-Z, the program
freezes.  But if I run the program in bash and hit Ctrl-Z, the program
is suspended.  Is this normal?

The problem in #1 did not occur in 1.1.6.  Since setup.exe does not let
me back-rev to 1.1.6, I can not verify this.

Any info is greatly appreciated.
