Tomorrow when I get access to my Cygwin system again I'll try to
write up a tiny test case which shows the error behavior we are
seeing and send it to the Cygwin mailing list, as this really does
seem to be a Cygwin or Windows issue. But of course having GIT
handle this case slightly better wouldn't be bad either. :-)
Surely, and thanks. I'll await for a follow-up report, and
until then will hold onto this patch.
