Problem: If it was Cygwin, it couldn't use any other Cygwin dll - like cygpopt-0.dll (it might need to rebase them).
That's easy -- link statically. I provide both .dll.a and .a for libpopt.
Yep. I'd rather get it in, than worry about cygwin-vs-mingw issues. How about a simple shell script 'rebase-cyg'? Psuedo-code (probably needs lots of work, especially in quoting):It's somewhat an unanswered question whether rebasing cygwin1.dll is necessary/useful/harmful. IMO, we already have strace & cygcheck that don't do Cygwin paths. It might be better to get rebase in as is, and think about this as a possible long term enhancement (you know, that lightweight path translation library mentioned as a possibility in the setup TODO).
