The URLs you forgot are
http://siddiqi.webjump.com
and
http://www.geocities.com/ResearchTriangle/Forum/6298
I noticed from your errors, the "_ctype_", that means
you are using the binaries compiled for Cygwin Snapshots.
I expected them to work with Cygwin 1.0 CD-distribution,
though I have not tested, yet. I did receive a few
complains from a couple of other users. They reported
same problems you had.
As soon as I receive my Cygwin 1.0 CD, I would start
updating my X11R6.x and MOTIF distributions. It might take some
time though because applications for Cygwin amount to over 1 gig
on my various URLs. My first periority would be to update
X11R6.x, MOTIF and SGI's GLX/GLs libraries, so Cygwin users
could continue migrating UNIX codes to Windows NT.
