I have to run "strace app" to see > the same error I used to see without strace. Run the problematic application under cmd to get the missing-entry-point/missing-dll popup box. When run by a cygwin application (such as bash), the error is intentionally squelched by cygwin1.dll and treated instead as exit status 53, because it is annoying to have a non-interactive script file block while waiting for an interactive user to dismiss a modal popup box. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
