Seems as the prerequisite for this is getting ALL of the sources - SIGH.

I did read and follow
	http://cygwin.com/cvs.html
and then I've been "following"(ironic!) the "instructions" at
	"How do I rebuild the tools on my NT box?"
	http://cygwin.com/faq/faq_4.html#SEC104
and got fed up with the non-match and the following guesswork.


Just a thought: WHY is it so hard to make a debug/unstripped version of the
current cygwin1.dll available for download?

I'll leave this for a day or two now. Good evening.
