Overlooked that in the first place. So what you get is that the one *or* the other string is displayed. That's a serious problem, likely related to the IO subsystem. So the first question is: which IO system is active on Cygwin: the windows or the unix variant? But looking at the source code it seems that the IO system shutdown code is rather broken: only stdout and stderr streams are flushed but not the actual PIOs. I'll try to fix that. > Joshua Gatcomb leo
