I will mail this to anyone who wants it. Just e-mail your request to me directly (fuehrer AT seabase DOT com) so we don't clutter up the gnu-win32 mailing list. Please specify whether or not you want me to send a pre-built cygwin.dll that includes my patches to winsup, as it is 544 kBytes uncompressed. The SML-NJ team has accepted these changes and are incorporating them now. I'm working through this mailing list to get the CygWin32 changes incorporated into beta 19. My goal is to get SML-NJ 109.31 and CygWin32 beta 19 working together without patches. We'll see how it goes. Since I haven't pointed it out explicitly anywhere else, I just inform everyone now: SML-NJ can't work under CygWin32 on top of Win95. Only NT. It's because the SML-NJ runtime for unix variants (of which CygWin32 is one) depends on a functioning mmap(). And mmap() can't be implemented by CygWin32 (or anyone else) for Win95 (see winsup/mmap.cc for a special comment about Win95). Thanks for your interest, Gary PS.
