Don't know if this is related but a few days ago after installing
cygwin-1.5.13-1, and cygrunsrv-1.0.1-1, ssh-add started hanging on me
the first time I try to use it. If I simply CTRL+C it, and try again it
works. This happens consistently. I've tried with pdksh (my default
shell) and bash. Only seems to happen the first time I launch ssh-add
after rebooting, but I don't think it's related to MS services not
running. My PC can be up and running for hours first, and it'll still
happen. Any ideas?
