Hi!

Thank you for maintaining cygwin texlive.


I've updated texlive 20240312-1 and asymptote-2.88-1.

But, now, asy hangs after outputting a pdf.

How to reproduce:

1. Prepare test.asy:

// test.asy
dot((0,0));
// test.asy

2. `asy -vv test.asy` will successfully write test.eps.

3. But, `asy -vv -f pdf test.asy` will hang after gs produces test.pdf...
