I can't execute Cygwin applications directly on the command
prompt (cmd.exe) as the following since 2000/05/16. I can
observe this problem only on NT4 Sp6a.

C:\Home\fujieda>ls
C:\CYGWIN\USR\BIN\ls.exe: *** couldn't dynamically determine load address for 'NetWkstaUserGetInfo', Win32 error 127

C:\Home\fujieda>

It is triggered by the following modification in dcrt0.cc.
I confirmed it was solved by canceling the modification.
