The symptoms are: a consolehost and mintty are started. Instead of just the shell or whatever other program it's been told to run, there is now a second mintty process and the forked program spinning CPU on something. I have either not been able to attach strace to that process (for lack of a Cygwin process number) or strace hasn't given me any output. When I kill the forked process usually (but not always) mintty exits, but the consolehost does not. No changes with the suggestion from Takashi Yano and the 3.1.1 release from today. I've rolled back to 3.0.7 for now (so it's not the other updates that were installed at the same time), can't do any further investigation at the moment.
