No disrespect intended, Chris, but coming from you :) , I guess I would
appreciate a LITTLE more detail, like a statement to the effect of "no one
has tested it yet", or "we know for a fact that it doesn't work, and we're
not sure when it will".  I sometimes have a little trouble extracting enough
meaning from your somewhat short (in length, not tone) responses.

Probably.  Then I can say:

NO!  Check the FAQ!

XP64 requires a modified build of cygwin1.dll to run under Win32
emulation. There is no support for building native software.  XP32
emulates Win2K better; I installed cygwin and built and installed
gcc-3.1 under it, but I wouldn't "expect" everything (e.g. expect) to
work.
