Since the last remaining (known) bug was actually in newlib, I put a 
workaround in glib for now.  So, by applying the attached patch and 
following the instructions below, glib-2.0.7 will

1) build as shared libs
2) pass all 29 tests

Please read the attached NOTES file thoroughly -- especially if you're 
thinking about turning this simple patch into a full-blown set of cygwin 
packages.  [Note that the attached patch affects only the primary 
sources;  after running the bootstrap script the patch grows to almost 
1.9MB]

I also have some patches for glib-2.2.0, and will post those soon. 
However, 2.2.0 fails two tests...
