Good info. I'll try this if I can prove the standard cygwin install works.

Some success. I took the latest snapshot of the dll and copied it over 
the one in the lastest release install .

Now when I do:
$stty -F /dev/com1 115200
$stty -F /dev/com1

I get no errors and it reports the baud rate changed correctly.
But when I try:
$cat textfile.txt > /dev/com1
What comes out the serial port looks garbled at every baud I can try.
I tried replacing all the exe files with the snapshot versions but that 
did not change anything. stty is not included as part of any of the 
snapshots so maybe thats the reason.
