Note this is not a "ruling" just another data point. Well, considering what the root problem is, I wouldn't expect MS's rebase to work any better than the cygwin version. However, I would like to see some cooperation on how to resolve it. This problem is not specific to zsh. It has more to do with how exported symbols are treated/managed. I'd almost propose that rebase change such symbols' value, being rebase is the one changing the image base of the dll in the first place. However, I would really like to understand why this symbol exists and if there is some way to eliminate it and use the dll's real image base instead. > Jason -- Peter A.
