Hi folks,
I just uploaded a new Cygwin 1.7 test release, 1.7.0-54.
This fixes the bug I introduced in -53 which resulted in a non-functional
Cygwin DLL when building optimized code. Sorry, guys.
Since that's otherwise identical to -53, I kept the remainder
of the -53 release announcement untouched.
What's new in contrast to 1.7.0-52
===================================
- Recognize non-NTFS remote filesystems which report to be NTFS as
"cifs" filesystems and avoid to call potentially unsupported NT call
in readdir().

Bugfixes:
=========
- Don't just return EBUSY when trying to remove shared files on an NFS
share. Rather, really try to remove them first.
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2009-07/msg00872.html
- Fix a typo in setlocale() which made the GBK charset disfunctional.
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2009-07/msg00875.html
- Partially fix the FIFO regression reported in
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2009-07/msg00233.html
- Fix a crash when trying to set long console title strings.
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2009-07/msg00893.html
- Lower the memory usage of file descriptor data on the Cygwin heap.
This avoids to allocate 64K chunks per file. The new size is about
250 bytes + 4 * path length. This should fix the problem reported in
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2009-07/msg00766.html
- Fix a problem in the destructor call order on process exit.
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-developers/2009-07/msg00000.html
- Fix handling of incomplete UTF-8 sequences and rework UTF-16 surrogate
pair handling in mbrtowc() to be more bullet-proof. Check for invalid
Unicode valus beyond 0x10ffff.

FAQ:
====
- Q: How do I know that I'm running Cygwin 1.7.0-54?
A: The `uname -v' command prints "2009-07-30 22:25"
Have fun,
Corinna
