Thank you, arri, Brian Inglis, Frank Fesevur, Michael Enright, Thomas Wolf,
and anybody else I missed.  Your overviews are exactly what I was hoping for.

Not to go into details now, but I have tried it, and immediately had trouble.
Now, based on your feedback, I am sure it is my fault: I suspect I have some
symlinks
or the like in my Cygwin world that is leading to conflict.  Now that I know
it
should work, I am pretty sure I can get it to work.  I will report here on
the ultimate result.  Thanks again.
