Great.  This addresses my yet unanswered problem that holds back guile 1.7.1

    http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2004-09/msg00883.html

but this I do not understand; I've tried 2.95.3 and 3.4.1; they both
present this same popup box to whomever happens to be sitting at the
console (btw, is there a way to get Windows to display the error in a
more sensible way, to the person who actually issues the command?):

and the strange thing is that gdb says: dll not found.
