I spent a little time looking at these straces and scp -v output. I still don't understand what's going on, but it seems to be unrelated to the recent pipe changes. I say that because those changes only affected select for writes on pipes, and the problem seems to be on the read side. It looks lik

Hi folks, after upgrading to latest cygwin1.dll and openssh I have massive problems with ssh/scp. Using e.g. the same scp command it fails from time to time called from the command line. Unfortunately it fails more often when called from a shell script and quite every time when this shell scrip
