Actually, in "recent" snapshots (i.e., since May) ctype is exported
from the DLL.  That's what the problem is.

Just to reiterate for the fifth or sixth time:  Download everything from
the same place and you should be fine.  Don't grab libcygwin.a from one
site and cygwin1.dll from another.  I can't believe that this has to
be repeated.
