Subject: bash.exe doesn't launch correctly
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed

Dear Cygwin Developers:

I have downloaded and installed version 1.5.3-1 on two different Windows 
XP SP1 machines.  All was working correctly.  However, after installing 
the patch from Microsoft to plug the hole(s) that created RPC problems, 
I now cannot  launch a Bash shell.

On clicking the Cygwin icon, a shell appears for about one second and 
then is  dismissed.  Sometimes a cmd.exe process is left running  and 
sometimes it is not.

Since my laptop has not development environment other than the GNU 
goodies supplied by Cygwin, I am unable to debug to try and isolate the 
problem.

Has anyone else noticed this problem after  installing the RPC patch 
from Microsoft?

Regards,
Robert Sample
