After upgrading to Cygwin 1.7.26, trying to open the audio device
/dev/dsp fails with "No such file or directory".
This error appears in the log file of mpd (the music player daemon
available from Cygwin Ports), but there is also a simple test case:
$ ls -l /dev/dsp
crw-rw-rw- 1 ds None 14, 3 Dec 1 01:12 /dev/dsp
$ date > /dev/dsp
-bash: /dev/dsp: No such file or directory
The problem affects both the 64- and the 32-bit version and
disappears after downgrading to Cygwin 1.7.25.
