I have. Now, afaik, distributing such a binary is illegal[1]. If you
can convince me that I'm wrong, and provide me with binaries, I'll
probably be able to make a fully fledged autoinstalling executable for
the release.
OG.
[1] Commercial/non commercial use is not relevant here. GPL is.
Doesn't the cygwin stuff use Install Shield to build? (Perhaps it's
the limited version?) How does Cygnus get around this illegality?

I dunno whether they do. But being the copyright holders, they don't
need to abide by *any* license to redistribute their works.

Huh? Does Cygnus also hold the copyrights to bash, gawk, flex,
bison, gzip, patch, diff, etc.? These are all part of the Cygnus
gnu-win32 InstallShield package.
