[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: Cygwin 2.2.1-1


Hi Cygwin friends and users,


I released another version of Cygwin.  The version number is 2.2.1-1.


Bug Fixes
---------

- Revert the following patch from 2.2.0:
  When started from a non-Cygwin process, check if $HOME starts with a
  slash (absolute POSIX path).  Otherwise ignore it.
  Addresses discussion starting at
  https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2015-08/msg00048.html

- Fix output of /proc/cpuinfo in terms of cpu topology and cache size for
  modern CPUs and modern Windows OSes supporting more than 64 logical CPUs.
  Addresses: https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2015-06/msg00345.html

- Don't call LsaLookupSids to fetch group information and don't perform RFC2307
  owner/group mapping on Samba/NFS if account info is only fetched from local
  passwd/group files.
  Addresses: https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2015-07/msg00270.html

- Precautionally fix a potential data corruption problem in pipe I/O, only
  actually observered in Wine yet.  However, MSDN language indicates this
  might be a problem on real Windows as well.
  Addresses: https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2015-08/msg00225.html

- Include <sys/ucontext.h> from <sys/signal.h> if compiling for POSIX.1-2008.
  Addresses: https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2015-08/msg00266.html

- getservent(3) returned the port number in host byte order.  Change that to
  network byte order as required.

Have fun,
Corinna
