This behaviour occurs on CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW64 1.7.7(0.230/5/3) 2010-08-31
09:58. On Win7 x64 SP1 (Also occurs on SP0)

Repro Steps:

Open Bash window 1
====
mkdir ${TMP}/foo;
cd ${TMP}/foo;

===Leave this window open===

Open Bash window 2
====
mv ${TMP}/foo ${TMP}/bar;

This will hang indefinitely and produce no fail message. This is a new bug,
as when trying on an older version (CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW64 1.5.25(0.156/4/2)
2008-06-12 19:34) it shows an error and terminates.

I have tried copying over both bash.exe and mv.exe from this old version to
the new version however this does not resolve this problem.

Any suggestions I can try?

Thanks.
