> You're asking people for help.
Actually, I'm trying to help *you*.  But I'm rapidly losing my  
enthusiasm to do any debugging on this project since I keep having to  
jump through hoops.  As Corinna pointed out in a previous reply, it's  
a pain to jump into a new codebase and look around, but at least I  
was willing to give it a shot on my end, even if no one else is  
willing to return the favor on your end.

Actually, I hadn't thought it was really worth its own message --  
just a side note to point it out.

But since you feel this is worth its own thread,  perhaps you are  
right -- after all, people who are trying to work on your project may  
have their messages unnecessarily dropped.  Clear and reliable  
communication is very important in a large project, so that is a  
pretty big problem.  I'll send a message to cygwin-owner AT cygwin DOT com  
to make sure it gets pointed out properly.

thanks,
