Hi all,

Anyone else had trouble using a locally built cygwin.dll since moving to 
either the b19.1 source or the "developer's" source that Geoff published 
last week.  Whenever I try either of these two source code bases, I find
that the DLL that gets generated is invalid.  If I try to start bash with
the new DLL, I get a message box stating:

bash.exe - Bad Image

The application or DLL in d:\usr\H-i386-cygwin32\bin\cygwinb19.dll is not a
valid Windows NT image.  Please check this against your installation diskette.

If I return to a DLL that I built previous to the code base change (yes I 
built this one too), the DLL works fine and I get no complaints from any
tools.  The DLL I build simply patches in a couple of Sergey's latest
changes and one from me that fixes console colors.  Anybody else see this?

TIA,
