I don't think that there is much chance of people who read the cygwin mailing list figuring out what the error means or how it applies to them. However, I can see why a bug tracking list might be useful to people with a clue. I'll look into setting something up but it won't be soon. Setting up GNATS is an incredibly tedious and error-prone process. I keep waiting for "somebody" to automate the process on sources.redhat.com. cgf
