Re: Problems with Insigt and cygwin1.dll

["Pavel Kudrna" <kudrna@plasma.troja.mff.cuni.cz>]

I have also the unresolved problem with crash of another program in 
_size_of_stack_reserve__ (). So I can help with the fact that this 
function you can find in ld.exe. But also I have to repeat your 
(maybe not expressed) question how to debug into the .dll? Can 
anybody at least say that it's not possible?
