Idea, to help debug things like the above: Alt 1) Make an _unstripped_ cygwin1.dll available in a package named "cygwin-DEBUG-dll" or some such. Also make it be "TEST/Exp" forever. Alt 2) Have an unstripped cygwin1-DEBUG.dll added to the basic package, add a simple "cygswapdll" utility. Is this a Good or Bad idea? /Hannu E K Nevalainen, B.Sc.
