  Odd!  It fails for me on both.  (You did update gcc-4 on *both* your
installations, right?)

  I'm not sure.  From what I've studied so far of libgfortran/io, I think the
fortran "unit" numbers are mapped to, rather than directly equivalent to, unix
fds.  It might be a libgfortran bug, or it may even not; there could be some
interaction in the cygwin dll between DLL unload and stdio shutdown during the
exit sequence that fails to flush the stream properly, for example.  Still
investigating.

    cheers,
