I took a copy of mks provided by my job and put it on my Win2k box. It
was decent enough until I wanted to automatically build perl modules.

gzip is named mkszip and doesn't take an option that was required by
perl builds. I could never get their tar to work.

I just re-loaded cygwin. It's come a LONG way from 18 months ago. Kudos.
