Thanks. This also solved a problem we had with a nohup'ed background 
processing receiving SIGINT from the interactive shell from which it was 
started.

We would start the process as

   nohup java .... > app.out 2>&1 &

from a shell script (which then exits, which should reparent the java 
(really, any external Win32 console process) to 1 in Cygwin's 
accounting, shouldn't it?), but it would still receive any ^Cs we typed 
into the interactive shell window from which that wrapper shell was run..

It doesn't any more.
