And here's another problem, Yaakov.

Why does the bind package require an /etc/resolv.conf file?  Isn't that
used only by the resolver lib?  And the resolver lib is part of Cygwin
1.7 anyway, or in the minires package for Cygwin 1.5.  Minires/Cygwin 1.7
don't need a resolv.conf file, so why does bind?!?
