I'm on my way out of town for a few days, but I'll take a look when I
get back. As you know from previous correspondence, I'm not a
programmer, and I have no debugging experience. But I'll do my best.

This is way out of date. For example, the information about which gcc
versions are needed is wrong. I'll take a closer look and submit a
patch. If there are any remaining problems, I'll see what I can do.

You meant to say the latest pretest is 23.0.93. I built that as soon as
it came out and have been using it since then, just to make sure there
were no regressions from 23.0.92. I'll also test 23.0.94 and any future
pretests. My reason for using 23.0.92 for the "official" cygwin package
was that I had built it a month ago and knew that it worked well (at
least for me), so I thought I should just stick with that.

P.S. I subscribe to the emacs-devel list so that I can keep up with
what's going on. Are there any other lists I should watch? I'm not
interested in being inundated with a lot of email, but I do want to know
about it when cygwin issues arise.
