Updated my precious Cygwin this morning, as usual...

But now I start to have problems. I think it is the binunits update, but
I'm not sure.

gcc compilations have started to fail. With -mno-cygwin I get:

/bin/ld: crt2.o: No such file: No such file or directory

and without it:

/bin/ld: cannot find -lwinmm

Also I have used the Windows version of Emacs instead of the one that
ships with Cygwin. Can no longer start it from the Cygwin command line as
it complains about not finding term/w32-win.el. However, Emacs works fine
when I start it from Windows. So it seems that the new version can handle
Windows-style paths worse than the old one.

Also /usr/bin seems to have emptied up. Fixed this by doing a symbolic
link to /bin but this is getting hacky...

Luckily I haven't updated the other machine yet. Otherwise I'd have to
import my urgent projects to VC++.


br,
  Nicholas
