I have just tried: DLL version: 1.5.20 ... Build date: Sun Jun 4 16:35:33 EDT 2006 Snapshot date: 20060604-16:33:54 And I find it has fixed the problem. Thanks! Is there any indication as to how long before 1.5.20 will be fully released? I don't want to risk running under a CVS snapshot except for this test. -- Barry -- http://barrkel.blogspot.com/ -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
