How about using openlog() to determine how to handle this? I'm not sure I can suggest which argument to openlog() could be used to provide some sort of hint to cygwin as to how the app wanted to handle this issue. Perhaps extend the openlog API to take a filename which would specify the insertion string map file. Of course this would involve a registry write on app startup to get the message file name into the registry. Incidentally, the LOG_CONS and LOG_PERROR don't seem to work. -Bruce.
