Hi Eli,
	Your right as always.  Even if I get it to compile and overcome the
linker situation I'm not able to find a function definition for
MoveToEX(....) and I suppose a few other functions.

	I might try using headers from RSXNTDJ in place of cygwin32 but this
time I'll check for function definitions rather than dealing with the next
immediate glitch.

	I'm a bit disappointed as I thought that cygwin32 was part of gnu
and all sources would be in their 10M zip file.

		Thanks Ian.
