Heh, I was just about to email you with similar news! I had a look at my setup.log to see what I actually updated (and from what) and the only thing that seemed to make sense was an update of the cygwin .dll from v3.2.0-1 to v3.3.2-1 (I will add below an extract from my setup.log for that day, in case you see anything else of interest). [The previous entry was for 25th October 2021 and had some more interesting entries, like binutils, libcurl, etc., but I don't think it is relevant] Sorry I didn't think to look sooner. Happy Hunting!
