1st: A fresh cygwin install will most likely not work OOTB, it will
fail with fork errors.
You need to do a rebaseall once with no services and processes
running, only from dash
2nd: after the rebase database is initialized, a fresh parrot install
will need to add /bin/cygparrot*.dll
to be added to the rebase db (parrot specific, but for --gen-parrot do
it in rakudo)
ls /usr/bin/cygparrot-*.dll > dll.lst
rebaseall -T dll.lst
3rd: after building rakudo, only these steps are needed:
a) do not copy the parrot dll over (even twice)! add it to the PATH instead.
you will get more fork errors with such a big dll being
duplicated in memory.
b) rebase the new perl6 and nqp dll's:
ls dynext/*.dll nqp/dynext/*.dll > dll.lst
rebaseall -T dll.lst
This is only needed for testing. Better is to do no testing with the
temp. install, because it will pollute the rebase db
with some big dll's. windows 32-bit has only a limited dll space.
Rather do a make install, and then do a rebase all with the freshly
installed dlls in the right paths
