It built fine. Installed. Got to build mpfr 2.31, and gmp 4.2.2 kept showing 
4.2.1.
I did something wrong in installing it.
not sure where.
Waiting on Service pack 1 for Vista. See you guys later.
BTW Cygwin works great under Vista Home Premium.
All I did to install it under my semi-admin account was:
1 turn off UAC
2 rename setup.exe to foo
3 execute.
Takes me about 45 minutes it install from the net.
But with it downloaded, with Jari's programs, take 20 minutes from to 
install from hard drive.
With Vista, I made a 30 GB partition, and everything I download off the net 
goes there.
Including Cygwin.
