More error level issues

[Brian Bruns]

Hey all,

Sorry to bring this up again, but I'm having issues again with Cygwin
not passing error level codes back to the cmd shell.

Example, when clamscan finds a virus, it issues a return code of 1.
Inside of a Cygwin env it returns fine.

================
../test/clam.exe: ClamAV-Test-File FOUND

----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------
Known viruses: 31320
Engine version: devel-20050301
Scanned directories: 0
Scanned files: 1
Infected files: 1
Data scanned: 0.00 MB
Time: 3.372 sec (0 m 3 s)

$ echo $?
1
================

However, outside of Cygwin in a cmd shell, its returning 256 instead
of 1 to cmd.

================
../test/clam.exe: ClamAV-Test-File FOUND

----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------
Known viruses: 31320
Engine version: devel-20050301
Scanned directories: 0
Scanned files: 1
Infected files: 1
Data scanned: 0.00 MB
Time: 2.840 sec (0 m 2 s)

>echo %ERRORLEVEL%
256
================

I'm using Cygwin 1.5.13 - this apparently seems to work fine in
1.5.12.  I know I brought up this issue in the past, and it was
supposedly fixed, but it doesn't entirely look like it.

This is Win2k Pro SP4.

Thanks!
