1.5.24-2: Applications automatically restart on crash

[Christopher Morlier <chris at morlier dot us>]

Hi Everyone,
For a couple of years I have noticed that when I run programs from 
within Cygwin (currently 1.5.24-2), if the program crashes (ie segfault) 
then the program gets automatically restarted.  This is primarily a 
problem when compiling/testing a windows program I am developing 
(compiled with MSVC), as I have to wait for the program to restart so I 
can shut it down. It seems like this hasn't always been the behavior, 
although it has been for several years (in the past, it just didn't 
effect me as much).

I was wondering, is this a bug or a feature? And if it is a feature is 
there a way to prevent it from happening?

Thanks,
Chris
