WinMain() not getting cl with 20060403 snapshot

[David Rothenberger <daveroth at acm dot org>]

WinMain() in a program compiled with cygwin1.dll is no longer
getting passed the command-line from bash correctly with the
20060403 snapshot. It works fine with the 20060329 snapshot.

This is the same problem mentioned in
<http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2005-09/msg00298.html>.

The same test case is attached here again (winCmdLine.c). I compile
it with "gcc -o winCmdLine winCmdLine.c" (note no -mno-cygwin).

With the 20060403 snapshot, I get:

% uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-5.1 tela 1.5.20s(0.155/4/2) 20060403 13:33:45 i686 Cygwin
% ./winCmdLine arg1 arg2
"

With the 20060329 snapshot, I get:

% uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-5.1 tela 1.5.20s(0.155/4/2) 20060329 23:02:10 i686 Cygwin
% ./winCmdLine arg1 arg2
 arg1 arg2

Of course, this problem goes away when using -mno-cygwin. The
program also works fine when invoked directly from a cmd.exe shell
instead of bash.

The problem appeared in winclient.exe, part of the XEmacs
distribution. I can easily work around the problem, but wanted to
mention it anyway because it is a regression.
