I agree. Win7 support will return soon. I am trying to get this fixed
before I leave tomorrow, but I also have some real (as in paying) work to
do so no guarantees.

This particular problem has been fixed by a combination of
WaitForSingleObject and GetOverlappedResult (GetOverlappedResultEx is
really a wrapper around WaitForSingeObject). But I have also discovered
another issue that is less trivial.

I am going to really try to get that Win 7 supporting build out by the end
of Thursday (Pacific time).

Actually my ITP submission is this cygfuse DLL. Based on what you write
above it looks like you are happy to become the maintainer(?). If yes, it
would perhaps make sense for you to resubmit the package.

Please let me know if you agree and I will place the package under the BSD
and transfer ownership to you on GitHub.
