Brian, Please check that this patch works properly when CYGWIN=winsymlinks:nativestrict I have encountered problems when running cygport with this setting due to the different behavior of unix symlinks and windows symlinks vis-a-vis attempting to create a symlink that points to a non-existent location. [ https://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-cygwinenv.html] My simplistic solution was to force CYGWIN=winsymlinks.native in the .cygport file.
