Huh?
tar xjf cygwin-1.5.12-1-src.tar.bz2
cd cygwin-1.5.12-1
mkdir build
cd build
(../configure; make) >& make.out
This builds a cygwin DLL. Just tried it.
Since all of your arguments were presupposing something to do with CVS,
I assume that this addresses your concerns. You don't need CVS and I
did not say that you had to use CVS.
It does make sense to check CVS or a snapshot to see if your problem is
fixed before you go to any effort trying to debug a problem, however.
