Rerun after any system change or build. Alright, I think I've got it now, thank you. I'll experiment with it first and then I'm guessing that this might eventually belong in libtool or some such, although I'm guessing that that wouldn't work unless we could have two databases, the system database and a temporary build database.

Thank you for the BLODA list.

YMMV The first thing I've done when installing Windows in the past is to have the network cable unplugged and disable every service that I think I don't need because experience has taught me not to trust Windows. Occasionally, I've had to re-enable services that it turned out I did need. Are there any pretty list of "stupid windows services" out there that you recommend? Also, I'm not doing any windows/lanman networking, so I disable computer browser and the like. I'm also building the current cygwin1.dll from git as I've seen a few messages about bugs being fixed that could be related.
