(I replied with this earlier directly to someone who I didn't realize had only replied to me.)
I do have a couple other clues that I've noticed while continuing to debug this. This person also has "git bash" installed, which is certainly similar to Cygwin, but not quite the same. In his gitbash shell, he does not get this error. If it matters, here is the "uname -a" output (hostname elided): CYGWIN_NT-10.0-22000 ... 3.4.6-1.x86_64 2023-02-14 13:23 UTC x86_64 Cygwin If it matters, here is the same from his gitbash shell: MINGW64_NT-10.0-22000 ... 3.1.7-340.x86_64 2021-03-26 22:17 UTC x86_64 Msys He is running Windows 11 (as I am). What else can I try to narrow this down?
