Agreed.

BTW: What about a man page for dllwrap?
It's a binutils binary, without any info nor man nor description
in the Cygwin/*.README.

I would want to write one, if I would understand it.
But then I wouldn't need it. (Catch 22)

I don't think that binutils wants to support it in their texinfo doc.
But please someone (Charles?) add some info either to cygwin-doc or 
binutils.
