gelati,
 Regarding:  
> Before I spam the list with the errors I get from running Zsh, I'd like to know if Zsh or alternative shells are officially supported by the Cygwin distribution. That is, is Zsh (or tcsh) supposed to be as functional as Bash under Cygwin? Or is Zsh sim
ply included on a "you're lucky if it works, you're on your own if it doesn't" basis? Feedback from Zsh users appreciated.

   I presume you have silly scripting errors due to your bad syntax.  If not then give us a precise idea about what you are talking about.  

   I as well am using:
          zsh 4.3.9 (i686-pc-cygwin)

   which I compiled manually with gcc (GCC) 4.3.4 20090531 (prerelease)



p.s. Regarding you're threat about spamming, it is my opinion that one should not 
suggest that one is or would be such an a.h...........
I will presume you meant it rhetorically.
