Karl, sorry to belabor the obvious, but have you completely killed the
service processes before updating the DLL?  For me, after every
unsuccessful service startup, there was a stale cygrunsrv process left
that could be keeping the old DLL in memory.

Unfortunately, yes...I stopped everything first. And after I copy it in, I run a script that resets my mounts all permissions on my cygwin install because setup seems to muck that up sometimes. Then I start everything back up.

FWIW, I have only tested this with a self-built DLL, not the snapshot. Will do so shortly.
