Problem with git on cygwin64 on Windows 10 (2.8.3-1), again

[Thomas Nilsson]

I can report that I finally found the problem. User error, of course.

I decided to install 32-bit Cygwin in parallel to my 64-bit. So I 
installed a fresh 64 under /cygwin64 and a 32-bit under /cygwin32. I 
don't know why but

1) the installation under /cygwin got broken
2) I had some desktop shortcut still pointing to mintty starting in it

So, "again" meant "when I used that shortcut"...

Don't know why git did not write anything more useful when it died, 
though... Or why it did...

But running consistent version makes everything work as expected ,-)

(This is mostly documentation for posterity ;-)
