Hi Cygwin friends and users,
I just released Cygwin 1.7.21. This is mostly a bugfix release. What's new: ----------- - New API: rawmemchr. - Make cygcheck report when scanned DLLs are symlinks or are not meant for the current architecture (x86 vs. x86_64). See: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2013-07/msg00143.html Bug fixes: ---------- - Fix long-standing problem which allows to access files via ".." using an invalid POSIX path, for instance, `cd nonexistant/../existing_dir".
