Hi,

Please can you help me to diagnose this issue?

Attempting Perl Term::ReadKey from an empty string under Cygwin causes perl to 
segmentation fault. The same command on Debian, or with a non-empty string, 
works fine.

Example command:

> perl -MTerm::ReadKey -e 'my $input = ""; open(my $stdin, "<", \$input) or die 
> "failed to open: $!"; local *STDIN = $stdin; ReadMode "raw"; my $response = 
> ReadKey(1, \*STDIN); ReadMode "normal"; print "Got \"$response\"\n";'

Response under cygwin:

> Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Response under Debian:

> Got ""

Changing $input to anything non-empty works properly.

Cygwin dll version: 1.7.32
Perl version: 5.14.4
Term::ReadKey version: 2.33

Kind regards,
Luke
