Thanks. I was put off by Eric at first, as it seemed he wanted me to do
everything, and I was not looking forward to fixing a low level bug like this.
Still am not.

I am going to keep my response here civil, with repsect to Larry. I would like
you to know that I have answered more Cygwin questions on Stack Overflow than
anyone on the site:

http://stackoverflow.com/tags/cygwin/topusers

No, I am no subscribed to this list, but the point of my script is to allow me
to reply without subscribing. I can reply to any threads, not just my own.
