Well, that's really bad news.
I don't think i can use anaport.dll without the nut* stuff,
at least i do not know how to tell NT to skip the reference
to the nutlibc4.dll and use cygwin1.dll instead.

Is there a chance to get our program to worl with that DLL
when i use the -mno-cygwin option (giving up posix support, 
but i still have a gcc and all the unix tools to build the program with),
or would it be better to take the whole pain an use MSVC ??


cheers,

	Frank.
