I tried 20010925 snapshot on Win98 and this indeed solves the "cvs+ssh
hang when finished" problem.  Brilliant, thanks!

However, I've tried 20010925 and 20010927 snapshots on NT4-sp5, and it
causes xemacs (self compiled) to ignore any input.  More precisely:

"xemacs -nw" ignores keyboard input for xemacs-21.1.12 and xemacs-25.1-b2.
"xemacs" (windows, not X) works for xemacs-21.1.12 but ignores all
mouse & keyboard input for xemacs-25.1-b2.

xemacs-21.1.12 was built Nov 2000 (probably with cygwin 1.1.8), while
xemacs-25.1-b2 was build Aug 2001 (probably with cygwin 1.3.2).

This is all I can say at the moment.  I see you made more pipe changes
today, so I will also try the next snapshot.  I will also try to
recompile xemacs with an inst-snapshot if you think that would be
helpful.

Sorry I don't have more details, but I wanted to alert you to this in
case you were about to release.

Thanks,
David
