The mount points are now stored in /etc/fstab and /etc/fstab.d/$USER
instead of in the system and user registry.  There are also a couple
of changes which we don't exactly consider ready for release.
In theory, you shouldn't use it in a production environment yet.

The DLL has been build with VC++ due to the lack of a 64 bit capable gcc
for Cygwin.  As long as this is the case, rebaseall will have to be
changed to skip cyglsa.dll and cyglsa64.dll.  For the time being, what
you did is the right thing to do.

Btw., another workaround using Cygwin 1.5.25 would be to use password
authentication, at least as long as you're not logging in to a domain
admin account.  The latter requires tweaking /etc/group...
