Subject:	`exec foo' exists parent process
To:	cygwin developers <cygwin-developers AT sourceware DOT cygnus DOT com>
MIME-Version:	1.0

FYI, I've just discovered that `exec foo' where foo is any command exits the
parent bash shell.  This is with the current CVS version minus any
modifications today.

Cheers,
