Eh? There's been no bug report. I was just sharing some casual observations in response to another post. To be clear: The above diff command has no output. The output is supposed to be along the lines of: --- /dev/fd/63 2012-04-11 11:44:02.283689675 -0700 +++ /dev/fd/62 2012-04-11 11:44:02.283689675 -0700 @@ -1 +1 @@ -foo +bar The failure is reproducible on the latest mainline distribution running on my workstation. It also occurs exactly the same way in a very different roll-your-own environment I have immediate access to, also on my workstation. I suppose I could have mentioned that my box is: CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW64 1.7.13(0.260/5/3) 2012-04-05 12:43 i686 unknown unknown Cygwin That's all I know. I'm well aware that more effort will probably be required on my part if I'm to meaningfully contribute to solving the problem. As I stated: I don't have time to debug it any further. If you don't like that fact, I invite you to ignore me and wait a day or two, after which I've already promised to make some time to look into it further. Sheesh, you win I guess: I'm now as frustrated as you apparently are. Shall we move on or just have a big stupid flame-war? I'm game either way. -gmt -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
