I am trying do the following.  I would like to put the Cygwin tree
together with XFree86, XEmacs and Xvnc (which I use as an Xserver) on
a CD.  I can pop it into a windows machine (issue a few mount commands
if necessary) and get an instant Unix environment.  However, I have
problem with symlinks.  Cygwin 1.14 doesn't seem to understand
symbolic links on a CD I made with mkisofs -J -L -r on a Linux Box,
while 1.12 works fine.
