 I would second Suhaib's recommendation to build and install gcc-2.95.2.  I 
have done this in my B21 snapshot installations.  I first installed 
make-3.77.  There is a minor patch required to make libf2c/libU77/[de]time_.c 
consistent with the new <windows.h>, and it's worth while to make sure that 
.p2align is configured, even though it's not fully effective because cygwin 
does not maintain the required 128-bit stack alignment.  I think this 
requires installation of a binutils snapshot.  I am getting significantly 
better performance on my applications than I was getting with LF95, although 
this varies according to circumstances.
