Re: cygwn 5.19 with X-win bootstrap

[djh]

Eli, et al,
  sorry I was sent out of town for some testing and was unable to continue with 
testing cvs emasc with cygwin using x-widows.  I have taken up the matter with 
cygwin people and will upgrade to try using newer (not yet released versions) 
of cygwin and gdb
, which is reported be better.  The older versions reported SIGSEGV when it 
wasn't really the case....  

I report again when I find out more info.

Thanks for your support.
