RE: Can't reliably redirect standard output from C# program in recent Cygwin
I can reproduce this:
C:\cygwin\bin>perl -e 'print "abc";'
abc
C:\cygwin\bin>perl -e 'print "abc";' | more
abc
C:\cygwin\bin>perl -e 'print "abc";' | more
abc
C:\cygwin\bin>perl -e 'print "abc";' | more
C:\cygwin\bin>perl -e 'print "abc";' | more
C:\cygwin\bin>perl -e 'print "abc";' | more
I also noticed that the failures took 1 or 2 seconds to run - a significant
delay. The successful runs completed "instantly".

I've just noticed what sounds like the same issue:
On Windows 7, in a 'cmd' window (at a 'cmd' prompt) doing the following
fails more often than not:
perl -e 'print "abc";' | \cygwin\bin\more
That is: "abc" does not always display on the screen after the command is
executed.
I note that the problem does not seem to happen in a mintty window or in
bash started from a 'cmd' window.
I'm running cygwin perl 5.14 with an up-to-date cygwin.
