I do now.  Basically it's setvbuf screwing up the internal flags in the
FILE structure.  I took the liberty to update newlib's setvbuf to the
OpenBSD version locally and I'm going to apply my patches to newlib
soon.  I'll provide a new 2.5.0 test release of Cygwin with this patch
tomorrow or early next week.


Thanks again for the testcase,
Corinna
