Since it is difficult to go backwards with cygwin, I'd discourage that!

That fixed it!  Thanks!   ;)

So far, I have had to treat gforth on cygwin as Unix, with CR line
terminators and / path separators.  If this is changing, I won't be happy
with all the changes I will probably have to make, but I recognize that it
may be easier for you to support.  I notice that I haven't had to play the
same games with line terminators this time that I had to mess with last
time.  So I guess that means you have fixed the problems on your end.
Still, it looks like there is still a hole with the latest cygwin release.

You know my vote!
