I've upgraded our Coverity Scan analysis to use Coverity version
7.7.0.4. I've run this over the most recent snapshot code, and three
defects were eliminated. I assume these were false positives that were
reported by Coverity 7.6.0 but fixed in the later version. No new
defects were detected.

The Coverity Scan analysis is performed on Cygwin snapshots as and when
they are created. We haven't had a new snapshot for a while, and hence
it's been over a month since Coverity was run previously.

Dave.

thanks for letting us know. I guess I'll upload a new snapshot next
week, after I had a chance to look into the various issues which piled
up over the last few weeks.
