Updated: rebase-2.4.4-1

New News:
=== ====
I have updated the version of rebase to 2.4.4-1.  The tarballs should be
available on a Cygwin mirror near you shortly.

The changes since the previous release are:

    * Change rebaseall to prevent "Argument list too long" errors as
      reported in:

      http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2005-09/msg00836.html

    * Change rebase to use modern method to find the image's
      IMAGE_NT_SIGNATURE as suggested in:
    
      http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2006-02/msg00645.html

    * Change imagehelper library so it compiles under gcc 3.4.x
      (and hopefully later) as suggested in an email from Jens Dill.

    * Change rebaseall to use a tighter regular expression when
      creating the rebase list.

Old News:
=== ====
The Cygwin rebase package contains two utilities, rebase and rebaseall.
The first utility is modeled after Microsoft's SDK rebase:

    http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/tools/tools/rebase.asp

The rebaseall utility is a convenient way for users that suffer from the
Cygwin rebase problem to rebase their entire system (i.e., all of their
DLLs).

Please read the README file:

    /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/rebase-2.4.4.README

since it covers requirements, usage, known issues, etc.

I would like to thank Ralf Habacker for providing the imagehelper
library.  This library has enabled me to create a rebase utility that
is usable by all Cygwin user (regardless of platform) on all DLLs
(regardless of stripping).
