Great! I am doing a make of mysql and am getting the error: libmysqld/sql_derived.cc: You are trying to create a symlink on a win32 file system. This file type is not supported on this platform.
How do I correctly identify file types to cygwin and correct this error situation? Sorry for the bother!
