On Linux, 'env ./.' triggers an exec() that fails with EACCES, and exits
with status 126 (file was located, but cannot be executed). But on
Cygwin, the exec() fails with ENOENT, and env exits with status 127

OK, I understand why it's the privileged token but why is it still in session 0?
Also, it doesn't really explain why the files are all installed with

Hello,
Thanks for the feedback.
It wasn't very difficult to trick the Makefile.am to include that
flag, but I think that what I did is
not the proper way to handle this issue, even though it produces valid
binaries, so I reported
this to the developer, because I think that could be a buggy behavio
Unfortunately when I use msmtp with gnus, it seems that msmtp decides
it can't ask me for a password. Is it possible to save them in some
file and have them protected somehow?
