 Building the cvs version of the cygwin dll "OOTB" seems to be a no-no
currently.

$ export CVSROOT=:pserver:anoncvs AT sources DOT redhat DOT com:/cvs/src
$ cvs login
passwd: anoncvs
$ cvs -z3 co winsup

To get the cvs /src level stuff (configure among other things) I did
$ cvs -z3 co .

and then hit CTRL-C when it had arrived... (I guess there is a better way,
but I didn't bother tonight)

I'm using this script (extracted/converted from the FAQ) to attempt the
cygwin1.dll build.
---
#!/bin/bash

echo -e "\n*** configure ***\n"
../configure --prefix=/install --enable-debug -v 2>&1 | tee configure.log

echo -e "\n*** make ***\n"
make 2>&1 | tee make.log

# echo -e "\n*** install ***\n"
# make install 2>&1 | tee install.log
---

/src/src contains winsup/, newlib/, libiberty/ among other things e.g.
Makefile and configure.

In using the script above, with a /src/src/build as *current* directory, the
make phase stops as shown below.

I think line 119 should be
	typedef _ssize_t ssize_t;
instead. A typo I guess.

At least this has make accept it ;-P
