Any and all combinations are welcome at this point. There seem to be an
infinite number of straws.
Next straw would be to put a call to init_console_handler(TRUE); just before
the call to CloseWindowStation:
if (horig && h && h != horig && SetProcessWindowStation (horig))
{
set_console_handler_true (TRUE);
CloseWindowStation (h);
}

Maybe that is a clue, as Yitzchak suggested. I'd missed that in the cygcheck
output. I'm running SP2 and I believe Corinna is also.
