Cygwin-X shortcut no longer works after recent updates

So is this expected to work fine in my environment, Windows Server 2016 (OS Version 10.0.14393), without the workaround? Thanks! -- Sent from: http://cygwin.1069669.n5.nabble.com/Cygwin-list-f3.html -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.

Incorrect behavior in TIOCINQ ioctl

Hi, I recently ran in to some troubles with the TIOCINQ ioctl. I am wondering if the cygwin implementation is correct... It seems if there were any existing framing overrun errors etc etc  before calling the TIOCINQ ioctl it is returning an error (EINVAL). Reading through linux implmentation
