I really don't know if this the same issue. But I had similiar symptom
after upgrade from 3.0.7 to 3.1.4 on Windows 7. The mintty window pops
up, but I got no command prompt. The bash shell used all of one CPU for
ever. I tried several things. The solution after hours was uninstalling
the gettext package. That's reproducable. After installing the gettext
package I get the hang. After uninstalling all's back to normal. That's
strange.
I don't really want to imagine how you came up with that observation,
but yes, that's the same problem I am facing. This is my current
workaround now:
1. Rename /usr/share/locale to something else, like local.bak.
2. Start mintty in the usual way.
3. Rename the directory from step 1 back to /usr/share/local.
4. Work just like the problem never existed either in the shell running
inside the mintty or even start a new mintty.
Andrew, can we have a Goldstar for Rainer, please?
This does not yet explain the issue, or did I miss a point? Since only
few people seem to have a problem, what's the locale you run in? Any
other special configuration?
