- rebaseall currently breaks the emacs package, if installed.
Only emacs or also xemacs?  If the latter, I guess I can't use this, since I
definitely need my Emacs (haven't yet reinstalled it on my fresh Cygwin
install).


There's a special incantation you can do afterwards that gets Emacs working
again.  I think it's reinstalling the libncurses package.  Check the email
archives for details.  It's been discussed before.

I thus reinstalled Cygwin from scratch again, and this time when running
ssh-host-config told it not to use privilege separation, to see if that
would make any difference, but after rebooting, sshd is doing the:

13 [main] sshd 1208 child_copy: linked dll data write copy failed, 0x33F000..0x33F050, done 0, windows pid 2276708, Win32 error 487

bit again. 'net stop sshd' and 'net start sshd' and I can get in.


There's no reason not to use privileged separation if you have the ability
to create users.  As for the message above, try rebaseall again.  Use the
process described in the README.  It's the only way it works.  And it only
works for what you have installed.  Adding to your installation or
reinstalling things you already have installed may require you to rerun
rebaseall to maintain it's affect.
