Changes since 1.5.11-1:
- Fix problem where stdout was closed when a thread exits. (Christopher Faylor)
- Fix pipe problems with Windows 95. (Bas van Gompel)
- Fix race condition in fork which occasionally caused bash to think a forked
process had died prematurely. (Christopher Faylor)
- Properly deal with CTRL-C while a cygwin process is in startup code.
(Pierre Humblet)
- Increase the number of pids "held around" by cygwin to work around (but not
solve entirely) problems where bash gets confused by pids with the same number
in a relatively short span of time.
- Handle RTLD_DEFAULT in dlsym. (Sam Steingold)
- Don't try to use Windows "delete on close" for files on remote shares.
(Corinna Vinschen)
- Properly handle trailing dots in windows file names. (Pierre Humblet)
- Make the default /cygdrive "binary mode". (Christopher Faylor)
- Add siginterrupt declaration to signal.h. (Christopher Faylor)
- Use proper wait value for tty reads. (Mark Paulus)
- Properly reset SIGCHLD blocking after a spawn when there was no previous
signal blocking. (Christopher Faylor)
- Work hard to ensure that SYSTEMROOT environment variable is always passed
to new processes even when it has ostensibly been deleted. This should
fix some strange network problems. (Corinna Vinschen)
- Fix network slowdowns experienced by some firewall users.
(Christopher Faylor)
- Fix minor formatting problems in cygcheck and getfacl.
