The test using the conflict_hunks helper function (test 9) fails
on cygwin, since sed (by default) throws away the CR from CRLF
line endings. This behaviour is undesirable, since the validation
code expects the CRLF line-ending to be present. In order to fix
the problem we pass the -b (--binary) option to sed, using the
SED_OPTIONS variable. We use the SED_STRIPS_CR prerequisite in the
conditional initialisation of SED_OPTIONS.

Note that this test does not fail on MinGW, but I don't
really know why, given commit ca02ad3... ahem ;-)

Ahem, indeed.  Why?

t3032 does indeed fail on MinGW, and was fixed in the msysgit port by [1],
but was subsequently "lost" when msysgit was rebased onto junio/next [2]
which did not have that test. Consequently, the fix never made it into the
mainline git source.

Sorry, but on MinGW, I only need the GREP_OPTIONS part of that fix, but
not the SED_OPTIONS. It's also mysterious for me.

OTOH, the fix in ca02ad3 that applies to t6038, does not work for me as is
because my sed does not understand -b; it needs --nocr. Maybe it is the
sed version that makes the difference?

D:\Src\mingw-git\t>sed --version
GNU sed version 3.02

Failure of t3032 was reported by Pat Thoyts [1] when preparing for the v1.7.3 release. The problem was diagnosed and patched via [2] under the standard msysgit netinstall [3] environment. From commit message [2], GREP_OPTIONS and SED_OPTIONS were applied to resolve distinct cases of line-terminator "corruption" (t3032.4-t3032.8 and t3032.9, respectively) within that environment at the time the patch was prepared.

Your tool versions may indeed not be compatible with those of the netinstall environment [3]:

$ sed --version
GNU sed version 4.2.1

Unfortunately, the old --nocr is not recognized by modern GNU sed:

$ sed --nocr
sed: unrecognized option `--nocr'
