Uuuuurgh! Sorry, sorry, sorry. I gave you the wrong URL to the DLL you should install. Of course it's *not* the one from 20050819, it's the latest one from yesterday. Please retry using this one from tonight: http://cygwin.com/snapshots/cygwin1-20050823.dll.bz2 (Did I get the URL right this time? Yes, it seems so.) If you're using this one, you should not get a "Bad address", at least I hope so.
