Subject: | *Why* use cygwin.dll from non-cygwin apps? |

What kinds of things to people expect to work when using the cygwin dll in a non-cygwin application? For example, I'd expect the path converters to work (converting posix paths to win32 paths), but I wouldn't expect fork to work (fork needs to know a *lot* about the application). So, I need to know what things are expected to work so I know where to focus on and what to test. DJ
