Thanks, I'll try to do that.
Your input is always useful, I'm glad you're still around.

OOH! renewed interest in Cygwin!?

I'll set up a new Cygwin environment ASAP and start messing with it again :)

Last place I got to before I gave up before was that I was able to
build most of the tools, but they simply did nothing - in other words
rc would run, but not actually perform any action, and not return any
error.  Even an attempt to spit back usage from a commandline yielded
no result.

IIRC, this caused it ultimately fail on the build of makebootable
where it was unable to add the resources.
