The size of the .DLL is 8.4M after un-bzip2-ing. However, that's
because the snapshot DLLs contain debugging information, which is
stripped from the release versions. That extra symbol info shouldn't
affect memory use though because it's not loaded into memory (afaik).

Yes, "cygcheck -s" should find version 1.5.15 since it searches for DLLs
and checks their versions. However if he ran "cygcheck -c" it might say
1.5.13 if that was the last version of the Cygwin package which he
installed with setup, since "-c" only looks at the package database
info.
