Ok, then I am at a loss here - where does th Cygwin/MinGW comes into pleay in that case? I will
try to build Win32 native using VS2K5, if you let me know which distribution is the way to go. Is
anyone else working on VS2K5?

If I can build a native Win32 version, then a native Cygwin version is somewhat of a redundancy,
there, but I can help you build/test, sure.

Gary
