Which has nothing to do with selecting on pipes unless (and even this is
pretty remote) you have turned on CYGWIN=tty for your cron for some
reason.
The point that I am vainly trying to make is that if one person reports
a symptom like "hanging" and another person reports a symptom like
"hanging" in a completely different scenario while offering a rationale
for the behavior, it does not automatically mean that person B has found
the root cause for person A's problem unless person A and person B's
situations are the same. There is nothing in your (repeated) description
of your problem to indicate that is the case.
