1) 1.3.0 has not been released.

2) Someone asked when I thought the problem was fixed.  I responded.
   I was not indicating that people who reported the problem after
   1.1.0 were liars or incompetent.

3) I am dangerously close to blocking posts on this topic.  If you
   are not interested in debugging the problem (as in, build cygwin
   and run gdb), then "Me too!" posts are just spam.  I would fix this
   if I could duplicate it.  I can't duplicate it.  That means that
   someone else has to fix it.
