I have re-built the curl package with the shared library DLL (cygcurl-2.dll) no longer

Could someone please upload it for me?
It's downloadable from:
I've got my non-stripped package coming. The non-stripped DLL is about 350 kb larger,

I'm guessing strip opens all files in binary mode, so that shouldn't

Cool. A couple observations:

use IE5 settings), but forget to enter a proxy server, I get a crash

My take on this:
ln -s /source /destination should create symbolic links; the closest
