There was also a more recent example:
https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2019-09/msg00228.html ,
which was fixed here:
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=newlib-cygwin.git;a=commitdiff;h=283cb372e
Please try the test release cygwin-3.1.0-0.8 to see if the fix also works for
your case. If not, can you figure out which file in /cygdrive causes the
assertion failure?
