I meant to just copy it not move it outright, as far as unstability I have
been using cygwin for quite a long time and have had no probs with this.
Even when you upgrade the cygwin package and install it, it will ask you if
you would like to remove the old dll from the system32 folder. Then you
could just do a copy of the new one. That said you could just make a copy of
it to the folder where your executable is it will work there to. Thanks for
your time.

Anyone who decides they want to do this is free to but it will invalidate
their installation and make it unstable.  Future problems they may run into
as a result will not be seriously entertained by this list (assuming said
persons post to this list for help in those cases) until cygwin1.dll is 
put back where setup installed it.  For anyone wondering, copying 
cygwin1.dll to this directory or any other carries the same warning.
