Sorry about that, been awhile since I've been on a mailing list.

$ cygcheck.exe ./wos_server.exe
.\wos_server.exe
  C:\cygwin\bin\cygcrypto-0.9.8.dll
    C:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll
      C:\WINDOWS\system32\ADVAPI32.DLL
        C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll
        C:\WINDOWS\system32\KERNEL32.dll
        C:\WINDOWS\system32\RPCRT4.dll
          C:\WINDOWS\system32\Secur32.dll
  C:\cygwin\bin\cygcurl-4.dll
    C:\cygwin\bin\cygssh2-1.dll
      C:\cygwin\bin\cygz.dll
    C:\cygwin\bin\cygssl-0.9.8.dll
  C:\cygwin\bin\cygdb-4.5.dll
  C:\cygwin\bin\cygexpat-1.dll
  C:\cygwin\bin\cygxml2-2.dll
    C:\cygwin\bin\cygiconv-2.dll

  C:\WINDOWS\system32\ODBC32.dll
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\msvcrt.dll
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\COMCTL32.dll
      C:\WINDOWS\system32\GDI32.dll
        C:\WINDOWS\system32\USER32.dll
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\SHELL32.dll
      C:\WINDOWS\system32\SHLWAPI.dll
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\comdlg32.dll
  C:\WINDOWS\system32\OLE32.dll

So I am using the ODBC and OLE32 for access to CreateGUID, I don't
think these are a problem, but I could be wrong.
