Ooo.  Not good.

Hey, this is what *test* releases are FOR.

Oh - I saw "version-specific-runtime-LIBS" and didn't make the

Fingers crossed.

BTW, was I correct about the C++ ABI?  Currently, the only DLL with true 
C++ exports(*) is libncurses6++; will that be usable with gcc-3.1.1, or 
will I need to release a new version?

(*) cygwin itself is the only other C++ DLL -- but all of its exports 
are non-mangled...
