can anyone help me with the follwoing?
- I have installed cygwin works fine for most things a great package
- I am now trying to install the GD.pm perl module from CPAN but have discovered (by trawling the cygwin archoves) that Perl has a problem with forks etc and the solution is to use 'rebase'
- I have rebase install via cygwin site but how do I use it?
- I have noticed from earlier emails that if I am not careful using rebaseall may cause problems
- so what is the safe way to use rebase?
- do I need to use it everytime I install a new package, dlls etc?
- should I be using rebase rather than rebaseall? if yes, what are the required values for the options (-b etc)?
I am sure many of you have solved this - any clues?

As indicated in the README:
Use the following procedure to rebase your entire system:
1. shutdown all Cygwin processes
2. start bash (do not use rxvt)
3. execute rebaseall (in the bash window)

The short answer is yes.
