Works fine for me. I just made a new 1.7 installation from scratch two days ago, and all the bash calls work as expected, except for a minor problem in the terminfo postinstall: 2009/06/16 11:13:37 running: C:\cygwin-1.7\bin\bash.exe --norc --noprofile -c /etc/postinstall/terminfo0.sh chmod: cannot operate on dangling symlink `Eterm-color' 2009/06/16 11:13:45 running: C:\cygwin-1.7\bin\bash.exe --norc --noprofile -c /etc/postinstall/terminfo.sh chmod: cannot operate on dangling symlink `Eterm-color' ETerm-color points to ../E/ETerm, but the directory is called 'e', not 'E'. That's a problem when using case-sensitivity like on a couple of my test machines. Chuck? Can you fix this in a manner which also works on case-sensitive filesyatems, please?
