Thanks for testing, Ken.  I updated to the 1214 snapshot and the
problem *seems* to be gone.  It may be worth backing down to the 1213
snapshot to see if you can reproduce that problem, it may return if
it's not understood.

That's pretty much what I did.

I did not try within mintty, though I guess I could,   I'd have to go
back to the 1213 snapshot.
