I do remember somethign about that entrypoint and 1.5.5. However, if 
installing lynx required the new perl and the perl was dependent on 
cygwin1.dll 1.5.5 then shouldn't setup have handled such a dependency 
chain? (Just curious...)

there has never been anything before it. If it's an improvement, then 
there must have been something before it.
