Yeah it is a pity, but I think it'll be worth the wait.  Besides,
cygserver might be stable enough by then that we could turn on
MIT-SHM =).  Oh well, I guess we'll see.  I suppose once the new
kernel is released, you could get Egor to send you a set of
"unofficial" binutils to build the new X11?  Oh well, I'll leave that
in your capable hands :-).
