For some reason, in the back of my cluttered mind, I seem to have 
this notion that there may have once been mentioned that to compile a 
new cygwin.dll you needed a commercial compiler like VC++.  Is that 
true?  Or can you compile it with the normal cygwin gcc et al?  
Would a linux cross-compiler be an option?

Just wondered before I tried it ...

Thanks
