These are harmless warnings. > and my emacs behavior is even worse. Then you should follow up on the Cygwin list. I'm pretty sure this is a Cygwin issue and not an Emacs bug. When you do follow up, please attach cygcheck output as requested at http://cygwin.com/problems.html, and please give the simplest possible recipe for reproducing the problem (starting from "emacs -Q"). Also, it might be useful for you to compress and attach the output of "rebase -is"; the address at which cygharfbuzz-0.dll is loaded looks surprisingly low to me. This makes me think of another thing you could try: Move the rebase database /etc/rebase.db.i386 out of the way and then rerun rebaseall. Ken
