Peculiar ... must be "Henri" problem then :-P

Installed Cygwin afresh ... (Erik, using the official tool! - setup-x86_64.exe)

 - I get the same result (for both the current cygwin1.dll and the modified one)
 - enter alt-234,
   followed by a backspace, followed by a linefeed, results in dash complaining
 - enter alt-234,
   followed by TWO backspaces (which eats part of the prompt), followed by
   a linefeed, leaves dash at peace ...

Regards,

Henri
