But interaction between cygwin XEmacs and native subprocesses has 
problems (sun javac is particularly troublesome, I've heard).  This is 
related to the CTRL-C problem that has been around forever -- but nobody 
cared about it enough to fix it, until now.  It looks like Robert 
Collins is taking some valuable time away from setup.exe to track this 
down, so this deficiency of cygwin XEmacs may soon be a non-issue. 
Thanks, Robert.
