  Indeed.  Can't remember what the long-ago bug was I ran into that made me
think unsetting it in the .cygport was the best solution, but the point is
moot anyway.

  Couldn't hurt, I know I had some stuff to dig through my inbox looking for
but if you wouldn't mind... <g>

  Once I've got linker plugin stuff sorted out upstream for
gcc-4.6/binutils-2.21.1, I'll build a 4.5.2 for the distro (and promote it to
curr, leaving 4.3.4-4 as prev) then start working on a 4.6.0 test package.

    cheers,
