Ok.

I did post a patch earlier. Should I submit it formally?

I didn't need the patch, but as you can see below I have some more
serious problems. Do you know of a minium version of Cygwin required?

Ok,

I just finished and I get the following on CYGWIN_NT-5.1 SPROCKET2
1.5.19(0.150/4/2) 2006-01-20 13:28 i686 Cygwin:

This is obviously rather old and I will update to see if the problem
