I have only one 'stunnel' process.
But remember that:
1. On Cygwin, so long as I don't 'exit' ssh, I can have multiple 'ssh'
   processes connect successfully over a single 'stunnel' process

2. Similarly, on Ubuntu, I can have multiple 'ssh' logins (and
   logouts) over a single 'stunnel' process

So again it seems like something happens to the 'stunnel' process when
I exit 'ssh' on Cygwin.

Definitely a possible solution though I would like to forget why it
 isn't working normally on Cygwin.
