Reporting that this (bloda issue?) has not shown up after I
upgraded, after 1 week of use. :->
The other problem that has not shown up after 1 week of use
is the tar/symbolic link, (bloda?) issue that resulted in symbolic
links randomly being untarred either OK, or as empty files w/'000'
chmod perms.
Such a joy, to have this issues gone, thanks much! The fixed version:
$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-5.1 chsi-2ce911dqcn 1.7.13(0.260/5/3) 2012-04-05 12:43 i686 Cygwin
Unfortunately I did not note the version prior to upgrading. Also, not
sure exactly which new version fixed the problems.
The (at work) hosts that had the problem:
case one: XP w/resident Symatec 11.0.4000.2295 anti virus
case two: VMWare instance of XP running "Microsoft Security Essentials" 2.0.657.0 anti virus
