Thank you for the information.  I found that the locale also matters.
The problem is not yet fixed in the snapshot and also the latest
commit of the git repository.


Repeat-By:

  I update the steps to reproduce the problem:

  1. Open Cygwin Terminal
  2. Run the following commands

    $ LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8
    $ mintty --version
    $ for a in {0..99}; do date; done | uniq -c


Locale:

  I found that the problem is reproduced when LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8.  I
  tried LANG=C and LANG=en_US.UTF-8, but the problem was not present
  with these locales.  I tried several locales as follows.  It appears
  it is related to multi-byte character sets, and also the problem
  does not occur if UTF-8 is not specified.

  * Not reproduced with: en_US.UTF-8, en_GB.UTF-8, de_DE.UTF-8,
    fr_FR.UTF-8, ru_RU.UTF-8, ja_JP

  * Reproduced with: ja_JP.UTF-8, ja_JP.utf8, zh_CN.UTF-8,
    zh_TW.UTF-8, ko_KR.UTF-8

  Next I tried to find out which locale category causes the problem,
  but the problem is not reproduced by just specifying a locale for
  one locale category.  I tried the following, but none reproduced the
  problem.

    $ LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.UTF-8; mintty --version
    $ for a in {0..99}; do date; done | uniq -c
    $ LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LC_COLLATE=ja_JP.UTF-8; mintty --version
    $ for a in {0..99}; do date; done | uniq -c
    $ LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LC_MESSAGES=ja_JP.UTF-8; mintty --version
    $ for a in {0..99}; do date; done | uniq -c
    $ LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LC_NUMERIC=ja_JP.UTF-8; mintty --version
    $ for a in {0..99}; do date; done | uniq -c
    $ LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LC_TIME=ja_JP.UTF-8; mintty --version
    $ for a in {0..99}; do date; done | uniq -c
    $ LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LC_MONETARY=ja_JP.UTF-8; mintty --version
    $ for a in {0..99}; do date; done | uniq -c

  Other interesting observations are

  1. To reproduce the problem, LANG needs not be set to
    ja_JP.UTF-8 when "mintty --version" runs, i.e., it can be
    reproduced with:

    $ mintty --version
    $ LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8
    $ for a in {0..99}; do date; done | uniq -c

  2. Once the exec starts to create a console window, the problem
    persists even after resetting LANG to a non-problematic one:

    $ mintty --version
    $ LANG=en_US.UTF-8
    $ for a in {0..99}; do date; done | uniq -c
    <No problems>
    $ LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8
    $ for a in {0..99}; do date; done | uniq -c
    <Many flashing console windows>
    $ LANG=en_US.UTF-8
    $ for a in {0..99}; do date; done | uniq -c
    <Still there are many console windows>


Cygwin Versions:

  In my environments, it is reproduced with the latest snapshot as
  well.  I also tried the latest version of the git repository, but
  the problem has not yet fixed.  I tried the following versions, but
  with all the versions the same problem occurs:

  1. Cygwin 3.1.2

  $ uname -a
  CYGWIN_NT-10.0 letsnote2019 3.1.2(0.340/5/3) 2019-12-21 15:25 x86_64
  Cygwin

  2. Snapshot 2020-01-14 from https://cygwin.com/snapshots/

  $ uname -a
  CYGWIN_NT-10.0 letsnote2019 3.1.2s(0.340/5/3) 2020-01-14 16:33 x86_64
  Cygwin

  3. Commit 85aff2830 from git://sourceware.org/git/newlib-cygwin.git

  $ uname -a
  CYGWIN_NT-10.0 letsnote2019 3.1.2(0.340/5/3) 2020-01-19 15:12 x86_64
  Cygwin

  4. Commit 4261a8f5c from git://sourceware.org/git/newlib-cygwin.git

  $ uname -a
  CYGWIN_NT-10.0 letsnote2019 3.1.2(0.340/5/3) 2020-01-21 00:57 x86_64
  Cygwin

  Also, this is not a specific problem of one computer because I tried
  with two laptops and both reproduce the same problem.


Best,

Koichi
