Thanks for the test case. Indeed, this works upto cygwin 3.0.7,
and does not work in cygwin 3.1.0 or later.

However, I wonder what platform is your program for. This test
case does not work also in native windows command prompt.
Your test case works only in old cygwin pty.

If you want to make a program which works in cygwin pty, you
can use cygwin g++ like:
g++ -mwindows pipes.cpp -o pipes
The binary built by above command works in cygwin pty, but does
not work in cygwin console (cygwin in command prompt) even with
cygwin 3.0.7.

If you want to make a program which works with windows console,
you should change the code like:

INT WinMain(HINSTANCE, HINSTANCE, PSTR, INT)
{
    if (!AttachConsole(ATTACH_PARENT_PROCESS)) AllocConsole();
    freopen("CONOUT$", "w", stdout);
    printf("This message used to show up in mintty cygwin v.2.11.2 shell! or from ssh session\n");
    return 0;
}
