The releases are tagged for my benefit when I make a release. I make no effort to ensure that any tag you see in CVS actually reflects the same numbered cygwin release. Also, since newlib and other components aren't tagged, it isn't possible to recreate a release exactly. As has been frequently mentioned, with a couple of very minor exceptions, cygwin releases are always backwards compatible. So, 1.3.18 DLLs should be able to handle executables built with 1.1.1. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
