Detailed bug reports are always welcome on the cygwin mailing list:
cygwin at cygwin dot com .  I should point out that the existence of
bugs in a product does not indicate a lack of support of the product,

I sincerely doubt that anyone in this mailing list wants to get into a
discussion of cygwin design.  If you really want to discuss this, the
cygwin mailing list is a much better place for that.
