Correction:
The "c:\cygwin\usr\lib\w32api" DOES actually exist in windows, but I could
not access that directory within the cygwin shell:
$ cd /usr/lib/w32api
bash: cd: /usr/lib/w32api: No such file or directory
However, if I copy "c:\cygwin\usr\lib\w32api" to c:\cygwin\lib, then
everything works (like what Luke said).
So what I think we're dealing with here is, "why can't cygwin see the
c:\cygwin\usr\lib\w32api directory"?
Thanks again,
