In your FAQ, i see:

    In accordance with section 10 of the GPL, Cygnus permits programs whose
    sources are distributed under a license that complies with the Open
    Source definition to be linked with libcygwin.a without libcygwin.a
    itself causing the resulting program to be covered by the GNU GPL.

Does Cygnus interpret the OpenLDAP license
(www.openldap.org/software/release/license.html) to be one which "complies
with the Open Source definition"? It's not explicitly listed on
opensource.org, and it's listed as GPL incompatible on fsf.org.

How about the Netscape Public License?
