"Guaranteed" might be a strong word - especially given the lack of a
guarantor; probably depends on whether the programmer has had to
workaround any nuances in the Cygwin library that may have changed in
later versions.  I think the library function exports have been the
same for awhile and I've personally had pretty good lucking simply
dropping in a new DLL file without issues.
