Yes, a few months ago, they stopped working for me.
For my report this is "merely" context, although I would appreciate it if they worked.

Same symptoms, exits after less than a second with same output (didn't diff, though).

Yes, I may have come to 1.17.2 from a release earlier than 1.17.1-5

To be able to work, I installed VcXsrv which has "1.17.0.0" in its version string.
That mostly works fine, except that it refuses connections from remote SSH-X-forwarding clients
(did not try to troubleshoot that yet, it's just been a few hours).

Yes, attached.
