perl has been updated to 5.10.1-1 for the upcoming cygwin -1.7 release. Important Changes since the last perl-5.10.0-5: - for cygwin-1.7 and gcc-4 only - added Win32CORE to the dll to enable libtool compilation (Yaakov). This is a fragile hack but survived all attempts to break it so far.

Ok, I was wrong about ash (not) using cygwin1.dll. Running ldd on rebase and peflags reveals that they use it too, which pretty much says that they are cygwin apps. However, it also shows that the preferred load address, on my system anyway, for cygwin1.dll is 0x6100. That explains the start
