"Yaakov (Cygwin/X)" <yselkowitz AT users DOT sourceforge DOT net> was heard to say:

I'm sorry I wasn't explicit enough here. The problem occurs if I  
connect to a Win32 mysqld. I don't use the Cygwin mysqld at this time.

I thought I'd mention this limitation because people may try the  
Cygwin client and go like "great, this !#**# doesn't work either" if  
they are not aware they have to use the -h option in this particular  
case. This was not intended to create the impression something's wrong  
with your port.

regards,
Markus
