More problems with subprocesses in 1.3.3

[Andy Piper]

I'm not sure how to articulate this e-mail since anything I say that is 
even mildly critical gets shot down in flames. So I guess I will try and 
stick to the facts.

There seems to be a regression in cygwin 1.3.3 with subprocess handling. I 
have raised the issue before where it is impossible to ^C a subprocess that 
is running inside of a shell script with CYGWIN=tty. For instance running a 
shell script that runs java. However, the saving grace used to be that you 
could ^Z the script and then do kill %1 and that would kill off the shell 
*and* subprocess. Now even this doesn't work, if you do ^Z and kill %1 the 
shell script dies but the underlying process doesn't.
