Jeff, I've noticed your email after I've posted mine :) I believe it's
the same problem.

This is a great suggestion. The toolkit I'm dealing with uses an
environment variable TOOLKIT_ROOT, which used to be specified
Windows-style. Converting it to unix path seems to fix the compilation
problem.

I still wish cygwin1.dll would take care of this automatically.

Thanks,
