Chris,

what are your warnings? why are you so insistent on giving them? Do you kick people 
off the list if you don't like what they post?

If this is the case, I'm sorry, but why the need for control? This is supposed to be an 
*open forum*. I'm trying to make cygwin easier to use. Its really hard to do this if I
have to watch every single word that I say. If I find something that makes -Mno-cygwin
hard to use, is that not on topic?

Ed
