RE: prelude to a new cygwin 1.5.7 release: snapshot available


Even with the latest snapshot dll (cygwin1-20040122.dll) I still have
the same problem as reported by Dirk Fassbender in message
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2004-01/msg00796.html:
When I start ddd gdb is complaining it cannot access /dev/tty1 etc.
So I am still using 1.5.5.
This is on Win XP/PRO with an empty CYGWIN environment variable.

Any test/strace etc. you want me to run ?
Or does this rings any bells w.r.t. changes between 1.5.5 and 1.5.6 ?
There is one change in the 1.5.6 announcement which seems to be related to
this:
	- Protect tty access from unauthorized users.  (Pierre Humblet,
	Christopher Faylor)
