Hi,
Why can there be only 1 cygwin1.dll in the filesystem? Is this a
limitation of the dll or is it just a problem with applications
finding the wrong version of the cygwin1.dll when there are several?
Or is it just that certain cygwin registry keys get initialised wrong

In the FAQ, I think it would be a good idea to mention that this
limitation makes it impossible (outside of setup.exe)
Thanks for the answer, the question wasn't really leading anywhere
other than idle curiosity. The answer seems like a good candidate for

It is not 100% complete but I guess something like that should be in
the FAQ under a heading of:

I am attempting to build apache 1.3.33-2 from the Cygwin sources. I
used the included build script and ran configure and make.
./apache-1.3.33-2.sh configure
./apache-1.3.33-2.sh make
...
make[5]: *** No rule to make target `libssl.dll', needed by `lib'.
Stop.

The solution was to install the httpd service with the following args:
$ cygrunsrv -I httpd -u nobody -p /usr/sbin/httpd -a -F -d "CYGWIN
httpd" -e "CYGWIN=server" --shutdown
$ net start httpd
The CYGWIN httpd service is starting.

the rather involved patch to add hooks and support for mod_ssl.
