Hi,

    I just set up Cygwin for x86 on my Windows 8.1 (64-bit) machine, and 
have been seeing the following issues:

1. When doing 'git clone', some of the expected messages don't show up. For 
example, this is what I see:

  datod_000 AT Q9450 ~/sandbox
  $ which git
  /usr/bin/git

  datod_000 AT Q9450 ~/sandbox
  $ git clone https://github.com/libimobiledevice/libplist.git
  Cloning into 'libplist'...

  datod_000 AT Q9450 ~/sandbox
  $

As you can see, the 'git clone' command doesn't display the stats such as 
objects received, deltas resolved, etc. 

2. When invoking python, I don't get the python's prompt back:

  datod_000 AT Q9450 ~/sandbox
  $ which python
  /usr/bin/python

  datod_000 AT Q9450 ~/sandbox
  $ python

It basically just hangs there. I have to ^C to get the shell prompt back.

3. I have a shell script that runs just fine on an older Cygwin installation 
on a Vista machine. But on this newer Cygwin installation, I get the 
following error message:

  datod_000 AT Q9450 ~/sandbox/libplist
  $ ./autogen.sh
  ./autogen.sh: line 16: syntax error: unexpected end of file

Any idea on what may be causing these issues and suggestion on how to fix 
them will be deeply appreciated. Thanks.
