Frankly, I think that if you want to get this working you should debug it yourself. That's just a pragmatic suggestion. I sincerely doubt that anyone else is going to be interested in fixing your problem for you. The other alternative is to purchase a support contract with Red Hat and pay for our professional services. Otherwise, you'll have to live with whatever free support Corinna and I are willing to give. If someone submits a patch or has a specific question beyond "Here's an strace log. What's going on???" I'll respond to it with my usual alacrity. cgf -- Want to unsubscribe from this list? Check out: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
