^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ concrete detail


I suspect that it probably about as irritable as certain people get when
"bug reports" are couched in colorful adjective-laden language without
any actual concrete details.

Eh? There's been no bug report. I was just sharing some casual observations in response to another post.

To be clear:

The above diff command has no output. The output is supposed to be along the lines of:

--- /dev/fd/63  2012-04-11 11:44:02.283689675 -0700
+++ /dev/fd/62  2012-04-11 11:44:02.283689675 -0700
@@ -1 +1 @@
-foo
+bar

The failure is reproducible on the latest mainline distribution running
on my workstation.  It also occurs exactly the same way in a very different
roll-your-own environment I have immediate access to, also on my workstation.

I suppose I could have mentioned that my box is:

CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW64 1.7.13(0.260/5/3) 2012-04-05 12:43 i686 unknown unknown Cygwin
