That's part of the point to this little problem.  When libzsh-4.1.1.ddl
is rebased the problem shows up, but cygggi-2.dll isn't rebased and the
same problem shows up.  It appears that only very convoluted
configurations evoke this problem, making it a very tough bug to shoot.

What I really want to know is how to stop the loading of a DLL right when
Dllmain is called.  In other words, I want to be able to trace all cygwin
code to determine weither this is a Windows bug or a cygwin bug.  I don't
know if I can do this with gdb or weither I'll have to resort to some
other means.
