Hi Jeff, Thanks a lot for your interest. I just wanted to clarify that I am *not* looking for a Windows port. I'm actually trying to compile it in Cygwin, which *should* behave like a regular *nix system, so that issue should *not* be specific of windows systems. If it turns out to be a "happens-in-windows-cygwin-only" thing, then it is most likely coming from some problem with my Cygwin installation, or (unlikely) a Cygwin bug. Thanks, Gustavo.
