Chris & All,

I dare say Corinna has a fair idea of what the code is, and whether she has
experienced the hanging problems ;).

I have suffered from the hanging cygpath issue, I did a clean install (new
box) and have since not changed the installation.  If you could supply me
with an exe for this code (private email) or the flags used when building
that code and a description of how to make setup run it (as I've not
actually gleaned that information from the mails on the subject), I will be
glad to see if I can cause the issue to happen.

I am currently getting the cygwin sources out of cvs, but due to work
firewall being quite strict I'm having to get them via an ssh tunnel to my
home server (ADSL) so could be quite some time.  Does anyone know if I want
to update my gcc before attempting to build the DLL with debug on (gcc
version 3.2 20020927 (prerelease))?

Cheers,

Steve Fairbairn.
