First, a question for the list:  Are problems with building
cygwin on-topic for this list?  I know y'all don't like custom
setups, and custom building may be worse!


I don't know if this is related to your problem, I am currently
checking to see if I can find that routine on my system, but I do
know a couple of things:

	1)	Cygwin rarely seems to build in my environement without
		hacking
		
	2)	Many packages that require an out-of-tree experience to
		build say don't make the build tree under the source
		tree. Generally with these packages (e.g. gcc) I'll cd
		into the unpacked directory, make a dir called 'src',
		move * to src, and then make a dir called bld.  That's
		just my style, the other common way is to use
		/usr/src/xxx and /usr/src/xxx-bld
		
	3)	Many of the problems I have run into have been 'solved'
		by doing a rm -fr of the src tree that is failing.  The
		winsup build builds many things, and I only needed to
		build the actual dll

Let me know if you need more info, I, personally, don't like
using I can't build.  I seem to remember my physics teacher
saying something about 'thinking you can apply a formula you
cannot derive'.  If the feeling is that this is not on-topic for
the list, we'll talk via personal email.
