That was much my thinking really: Chris had said that a new release was on its way and so people should flag up problems with it. And in this particular case I wasn't about to try and fix it since I knew Chris was already working in that area. Then again, the original "The road to 1.3.11 -- please try the latest snapshot" message was posted in the *cygwin* mailing list and not here, so I should have stayed there. This all feels like I'm trying to justify myself so I should stop but then again I suppose I felt a bit miffed by Chris's original reply. Perhaps if it had read "Thanks for the bug report but . . ." rather than just containing that (gentle) reprimand. Ah well, I see the bug's fixed so all's well that ends well. Best to all, // Conrad
