Cross install to MSys/mingw

[Motta, Frank]

Thanks Christopher,

	I hope that I won't need to ship the and worry about cygwin1.dll in then MSys/MinGW based product as that is the actual concern. Maintenance of
A Cygwin-based distribution has been a challenge for many, many products in my past as I cannot be 100% certain that the version of cygwin1.dll that is currently loaded
will actually work with the application.  


	I MUST add that I love Cygwin.  As a Unix/Linux developer that creates multi-host products.

If you're using MSys then you aren't really Cygwin-free.
