Here is what I have in my cygwin_dll.h (downloaded with the 1.1.4 release)

#define DECLARE_CYGWIN_DLL(Entry)  \
                                                    \
CDECL_BEGIN                 \
int WINAPI _cygwin_dll_entry (HANDLE h, DWORD reason, void *ptr);      \
.......
int WINAPI _cygwin_dll_entry (HINSTANCE h, DWORD reason, void *ptr)       \
{   .....

Whatever the choice, it should be the same in both lines.

I do not know if this is related, but I have problems on W2K in compiling
shared libraries and applications that link to these shared libraries.
Sometimes, when try to run one of these applications, I get an error message
box that says:

"The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000022). Clik OK to
terminate the application"

As it always happens with windows, no further explanation is given.

I have had this problem when trying to compile both X11R6 and PostgreSQL.

We do use HANDLE but it should be HINSTANCE:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/psdk/winbase/dll_8asu.htm

I removed the declaration that asserted HANDLE in 1.1.4.  I don't know
why this would be a problem unless someone isn't using the most
up-to-date cygwin.
