[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: mintty 3.1.6

[Randall Nutz]

I have had issues with 3.1.6 core dump crashes on Win7 32b, Win7 64bit &
Win10 both 32 & 64. I fought this all weekend. I ended up rolling back to
3.1.4 (3.1.5 also dumped) all this with Cygwin 32bit.
Unfortunately, we have an application that depends on 32 bit Cygwin.
