With the latest cygwin if I go "gcc -O0 -g hello.c -o hello" then "cgdb

actually starting my code. If I use just gdb not cgdb all is OK. If I
try "gcd -tui hello" I can single step my code but the display in the
top half of the window is damaged - eg after a couple of steps it shows
lines 5 and 6 of the source code twice each, but once normally and once
in inverted video.
Raw seems to gdb lets me step the code about as expected.
If I revert just the cygwin package from 3.2.0-1 to 3.1.6-1 things
appear to behave as I would expect. 3.1.7-1 possibly had -tui issues and
led to cgdb stalling on my large and broken example code which is why I
report 3.1.6-1 as the baseline.
At one time it was recommended to disable a Cygwin feature, something
like this:
alias cgdb="env CYGWIN=disable_pcon cgdb"
Not sure if this is still necesary.
