The fingerprints on the relevant files (...-msw.c, > ...encap-win32.c at least) are hugely stale, i.e. Ben Wing in 2000. I'm interested in hearing, yes, but I don't have a Windows dev environment at all right now, and know nothing about Windows or the 64-bit Cygwin, sorry. Maybe I could put together the dev env in early February, but not until then. Please do talk about it. I'm pretty sure Aidan still knows about Cygwin but may never have used a 64-bit environment, Jerry may have some contacts at RH that could help. And someday I'll remember enough of the conversation (or monologue :-P) to be of some use to somebody.
