Hi Jeff,

     Just a suggestion -- you might want to make sure that you have an
environment
variable called MAKE_MODE, and that its value is unix.  I.e.,

   SET MAKE_MODE=unix

Also, make sure that C:\Cygnus\B19\H-i386-cygwin32\bin is the first directory
in your PATH.  (You may need to adjust for the drive and place you installed
the Cygwin32 stuff, but that's the place if you go with the defaults).
