I can't reproduce a crash.  At this point, all I can think of is following
these directions:

and posting, as a text attachment, the output of 'cygcheck -svr'.

There was a double-free introduced in the cleanup I did yesterday.  It
should be fixed in 2.578.

(For anyone interested, the as part of the 2.577 cleanup I made
compress_bz's behavior consistent with that of compress_gz and
archive_tar in that they all "own" their underlying/original io_stream,
so when you delete one you delete both.  But there was still a place in
the ini downloading code where it explicitly deleted both the
uncompressed and the compressed io_stream, leading to the crash.  I am
so not liking all this manual io_stream pointer management, this is
crying out for auto_ptr/shared_ptr or something else sane.)

Version 2.578 works for me.

In .bashrc?   Then that means it's not cygwin's fault.  Cygwin does not 
write that out in .bashrc so it looks like either you did it or some 
application did it for you.

Thank you very much.

Best Regards,

Setting that variable tells programs that you want UTF-8 output, however
you're not using a terminal capable of displaying UTF-8 and so the
characters display as nonsense.

More would find it useful if you could divulge how you actually made it 
work on cygwin.
