You can try it out but it's important to keep in mind 2 things: 1. This is a patch that has not been accepted into CVS. 1.7.x is accomplishing the same thing by going a different path. 2. This patch still only affects cygwin1.dll. There is no newlib patch. So this doesn't get you any closer to your goal than the snapshot does. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
