Please disregard this post. Checking the changelog reveals that this is 
caused by a new feature, and can be overridden with the -d (--nodaemon) 
switch. My fault for not R'ing TFM before posting. I apologize.

Why isn't the old behavior the default (spawn one process), with the
new feature being *enabled* by the -d switch?  Wouldn't "-daemon" also
make more sense than "-nodaemon"?

Because the purpose of the new behaviour is to ensure normal operation
when mintty is called from a cygwin console, i.e. within a normal cygwin
environment. Unfortunately, otherwise, signal delivery is broken within
mintty, e.g. ^C does not work. I guess this is some bug in cygwin
itself, if you like to help debug it :) , we may eventually revert to
the previous behaviour.
Suggestions for better solutions are welcome, and I will check to detect
ConEmu explicitly to make an exception in that case.
Thomas

As of update 2.1.3, MinTTY, when opening, spawns 2 child processes, the 
second of which is the actual MinTTY window. This behavior is different 
from MinTTY 2.1.2, which spawned one, and breaks interoperability with 
ConEmu. Is there a reason why MinTTY needs to create a third process?
