I'm thinking of one install tree that is regarded as stable or production; another as unstable, where software development is happening. Sorry if this has been discussed before, but the mailing list search fuction is currently not available. It seems conceptually that this should work all right, as long as the installs are using a single shared copy of the cygwin dll . True, or not true? Thanks, James R.
