Cygwin PID returned by "$!" and Windows PID returned by "tasklist" are not the same. That is why the test fails. Need to return to using cygwin "ps" or somehow convert cygwin PIDs to tasklist PIDS.

Cannot be reproduced with JDK 9.

The file to be fixed is test/com/sun/jdi/ShellScaffold.sh (shared code for all tests).
