Confirmed.

Either
 - changing to 'best appearance' (visual effects) or
 - changing to 'Windows 7' (personalization)

does the trick ... i.e. mintty v211 (and v212 as modified by me, but W/O removing the
invocation of update_transparency() ) will not crash

Changing back to "my default" will make them crash again.

Exit Henri
