Just a short note.
During my holidays I got extremely excited about go (golang.org)
and started a cygwin port not knowing about the existing windows port.
I only had an old go on my laptop and no net.

Being back home now but still being a bit too busy I'll merge my port
to the already
working but limited windows port.
Should be better in just a few weeks.

Current windows go is lacking signals and a proper libc.
cygwin go executables will link to cygwin1.dll, have better signals and may=
be
I'll use better threads support.
A simple gocc wrapper is also in work.
