Sadly, even the oldest cygwin1.dll snapshot (from 7/30/11) seems to have this
issue. There is a pointer on the emacs lists (for MacOS) that says I should
recompile with #define DONT_REOPEN_PTYS to avoid the "inappropriate ioctl for
device" problem. I was hoping to avoid recompiling emacs but I guess I'll give
that a try. :)
Thanks for the ideas Ken.
