Thanks. I compiled that (under cygwin on an XP machine) and it worked.

Cygwin now works on my 64-bit Vista machine too. I decided to start 
over, so I deleted the entire c:\cygwin directory and manually removed 
all of the Cygnus keys from the registry. When I ran Cygwin's setup 
again, it worked. I didn't need to rebase any DLLs. I even tried the 
whole process again with Windows Defender enabled, and that worked too. 
So, I'm happy that it works now. I would be happier if I knew why, but I 
can no longer reproduce the problem I had before.

Alexander
