I wasn't aware that runemacs (aka run.exe) could be used for this
purpose.  Cool.  FWIW, "run" contains almost identical code (*) and is
available standalone from
http://www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/cygutils/unversioned/run/

(*) I took the runemacs code from XEmacs(21.0ish) and added lots of
stuff.  Then, I *think*, my version was absorbed back into
XEmacs(21.1ish).  Then the whole runemacs thing was dropped in the 21.2
series because 21.2cygwinXEmacs builds as a GUI (no console).
