Quite stable, with kinks.  I venture the guess that the number of bugs
is not higher than with 1.5.25.  They are just different.

   Am I going to inflict, upon myself, more pain than I gain?  :-)

Come on, whom do you ask?

   And BTW, what happened to 1.6? current release says its still at 1.5.25-15

The 1.6.x, 1.8.x numbers are reserved for the Red Hat supported
releases.

 Hi all,

 I've run into some weird behavior from the file-utils (grep, file) but I
 believe they may all be caused by the same root problem.

 The /prog/registry filesystem doesn't return the length of the 'default'
 value (often a string).


 Under /proc/registry/HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/
 I was grep'ing through   .txt/@  which I expected to find
 the string txtfile, but, I think because it is 0 len, grep thinks it is 
 a binary file (which I have my grep set to ignore).


 Known bug?  Is it in the queue to be fixed someday? :-)

Works in Cygwin 1.7
