upgrade question

[Rob Clack]

We have a large c/unix application which uses gtk and which has been 
ported to Windows.  Our gtk is ancient, as is our cygwin, and we're 
looking to upgrade both.

The cygwin was, I gather, seriously hacked (some time ago) to get it to 
work, and I don't want to throw it away before establishing that our app 
and gtk 2.2.2 and the latest cygwin are all going to work together OK.

Can I just rename my old cygwin directory tree (E:\cygwin) to something 
else and install the latest in its place?  I did read somewhere that you 
shouldn't have two cygwin1.dlls, hence the question.

Thanks in advance
Rob
