"reboot now" from console fails

[Randall R Schulz]

Richard,

Well, it's only going to work if you have a single Cygwin shell window 
open. That's usually the case for me. (I've never tried it with X 
running.) For the record, by CYGWIN variable is "binmode ntsec" (and 
now the "ntsec" is redundant--I guess it's just a leftover of times gone by).
