Can you confirm that most likely I have b20.1 or higher because I downloaded
"setup.exe" from a mirror
and did an install over the internet, letting setup download the packages?
How do I determine what package version setup installed for me? Is there a
list of version #'s for all the
various components in a major package release?
e.g. for package b20.1
subpackage version#
gcc 2.95
gdb 4.8
....
and so on.

MY Main objective is just to get the cygwin port of gdb and Insight working
on my Cygwin install.
Currently I can even use gdb with the command line interface "gdb -nw"
I have problems such as:
"error 193" can start process
source code only in assembly
can't list source code with 'list' command
breakpoints not working, stepping not working etc.
basically just a GUI is all that works.
whatever I have to do to get this working that's all I care about. If I have
to download the sources
and start compile myself, then so be it but what other options do I have?
