Well, in that case, Ben will be stuck with his forked-off BenCygwin :)

Hope you don't mind us discussing it on the Cygwin list, though - IMHO, it 
may lead to less questions for the Cygwin people (and more for Ben) if he 
gets anywhere with this. (But, it might lead to exactly the inverse).

If you do mind this discussion, I opt we move it elsewhere, because I *am* 
interested :)
