question about dependencies

Hi,

   This is a quick (and probably stupid) question about dependencies. I am
trying to build Pine to clear a problem with the mbx driver. It's not big
harm that there's a problem with it right now, but I think it's important
to support it for several reasons, which I won't discuss here, since it's
not the purpose of this message.

   The only way that I've found that I can solve the problem is by linking
with "-lkernel32", which is a library included in the w32api package, so
the question is, if I were to release this new version of Pine, would that
require any change in the required list of packages?

   (cygcheck returns 2 Dlls from C:\Windows\system32, I am not sure if I
can assume that those exist in the users machine or not).

   Thanks,

Eduardo
