Is this with 1.3.5?  The latest snapshot?  CVS?  Do I *really* have to
ask for these kind of details?

FWIW, Earnie sent me email asking why fearnie_boyd AT yahoo DOT com
couldn't send email to cygwin-developers .  I thought that the
answer to the question was kinda obvious but email to both
fearnie_boyd AT yahoo DOT com and earnie_boyd AT yahoo DOT com bounced.
