Sorry, one more question.  I thought from the above that
reinstalling 1.5.15 would restore the previous behavior for static
destructors.  According to cygcheck, I now have cygwin 1.5.15-1
installed, but I still don't see the static destructor output.  Is there
something else I need to revert while waiting for the fix?

Thanks again.
