cygwin_create_path import stops executable from running on 1.5 since 1.7.0-63

[Martin Dorey <mdorey at bluearc dot com>]

Linking a C program using 1.7.0-63 or 1.7.0-64 causes this runtime error when attempting to run the program on Cygwin 1.5:

"The procedure entry point cygwin_create_path could not be located in the dynamic link library cygwin1.dll".

This happens with gcc-3 or gcc-4 - it's the Cygwin version that matters.  I could reproduce this with a program as simple as:

int main() {
}

http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2009-11/msg00203.html leads me to think that the new import comes from Chuck's r1.2 pseudo-reloc.c changes for version 2 pseudo-relocs shortly before -63.
