Maybe I missed something, but ordinary remedies like tr -d '\r' don't do
anything, as cygwin strips the '\r' before tr sees it and then puts it back.
Or has that changed now, so the \r stays on #include files?  That may be the
problem, as it results in stuff from #include files getting ignored.

If I run configure with -pipe set in CFLAGS, configure appears to run OK but
then make won't run.  If I configure without -pipe, I can set -pipe in
BOOT_CFLAGS and it will be used successfully.  In that case, -pipe doesn't
have any affect on the operation other than to make it faster, as expected.

Oh! You mean... you love those re-installs, huh?  :-)

No, I've just taken away the icons, and even Norton is smart enough not to
start IE as long as it finds another way first.
