Thinking it might be useful to get the error messages into the googlotron, =
I tried to demonstrate this with little programs like this:

$ cat /tmp/ctype.c
#include <ctype.h>

int main() {
  return tolower(' ');
}
$

I didn't have any problems running any of them with 1.5, whose cygwin1.dll =
exports many plausible-looking names from ctype.h.
