This is a quite often-discussed topic, but there is not much info in the archives. All I could understand is: * It isn't possible with the current cygwin. * One needs at least to rename the library and use different registry entries and shared memory areas in different versions; perhaps something else. * Max Bowsher has a working version, albeit of an older cygwin. He wanted to patch the latest version himself, but I'm eager to see even the old patch, it would be a great starting point without duplicating the effort. Max, ple-e-ase :) ? I'm also interested in this kind of setup, but unfortunately, I haven't got much time for this. If you are going to work on this, I could also contribute some bits.
