I have done so, no improvement. . .

Understood, I did that.

Well, except that if I carefully rebase cygwin1.dll itself, then I
_can_ build xemacs. . .

But of course then I'm stuck with other code that won't run because of
the two-different-bases problem.

Anyway, thanks _very_ much for your help, it sounds like the xemacs
folks are really where this needs to be solved.  Point is, this is a
regression -- xemacs-21.4.15 works OK (mind you, I haven't tried
recompiling it with gcc-3.3.3).
