I updated to the very latest cygwin stuff using the web setup.exe, and
tried to compile a program that I know definitely built on my b20.1
installation a few weeks back (a prerelease of GNU m4 1.5, available
from my website).  It uses link time and runtime (LoadLibrary()) dll's
and is a pretty good stress test for libtool's dll support.

To my surprise, it worked!  Here is a part of the log around where the
build is compiling the libm4.la dll:

.

rm -fr .libs/libm4.la .libs/libm4.* .libs/libm4.*

  set dummy $symbol; \
  case $# in \
    2) echo " $2 @ $_lt_hint ; " >> .libs/libm4-0-0-0.dll-def ;; \
    *) echo " $2 @ $_lt_hint $3 ; " >> .libs/libm4-0-0-0.dll-def ;; \

p.s.  I think the current cvs HEAD of libtool is broken wrt cygwin
      right now.
      
p.p.s.  the version of getopts linked by the system is subtly broken
        and causes this m4 build to fail most of it's tests due to
	misparsing of the command line.  Linking it with the getopt
	files in the distribution works fine, and the build passes all
	tests.
