as I said I did rebaseall :-(
In a mean time I also tried with CYGWIN=pipe_byte, no change
At the moment of crash there is nothing new in the /var/log/sshd.log
Oh boy.  "CYGWIN=pipe_byte" will now become the voodoo fix for the masses.
I should have seen that one coming.

For the record, there is absolutely no reason to use pipe_byte with Cygwin
programs.
FAQ entry? It might work to have documentation for each CYGWIN= value that says specifically what it will *not* do. For example, pipe_byte will *not do anything* for cygwin programs, ttysec will *not do anything* at all, etc. Added bonus: a link for google to point the masses at that's *not* a third-party cygwin support page filled with out of date voodoo.
