For the first time for months on my system rebaseall is reporting an 
error as follows:

M:\>bin\dash
$ /bin/rebaseall
<< whirr away for ages >>
FixImage
(/usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/bin/libgcc_s_sjlj-1.dll)
failed with last error = 13
<< halt immediately >>
$

Q1: OS is XP Pro SP3, 32 bit. I always install everything. Can I recover 
from this rebaseall error by fixing something or should I simply 
un-install all 64-related packages (and never have installed them in the 
first place)?

Q2: rebaseall appears not to "skip and move on" when it encounters an 
error. In this case the whole thing simply halted as soon as this report 
came up. Can you tell me what actually happens in this kind of 
circumstance: does it skip-and-move-on or oh-dear-screech-to-a-halt?

Q3: does rebaseall have a tasklist somewhere, that it reads? Or does it 
simply work its way through bin/ lib/ [and others] looking for 
executables and .dlls, and do stuff to them?

Thank you.

Fergus
