OK, so I took your advice and reconfigured and recompiled the current
Cygwin snapshot (20001022) with "--enable-debugging".  Then I dropped
new-cygwin1.dll in place as cygwin1.dll in my 1.1.4 Cygwin
installation and attempted to duplicate the Cygwin problems we have
been seeing.

I can't get them to happen anymore, mainly because I'm seeing a new
problem which is happening earlier in the build process:

$ make -j2 everything
make MAKE_RECURSING=1 -C ./version-info all 
make[1]: Entering directory `/scratch/jik/metal/version-info'
set -e; \
rm -rf get-version-info.curl.tmp.HYDE.256 get-version-info.curl; \
sed  -e 's;xMAJORx;1;' \
	-e 's;xMINORx;2;' \
	-e 's;xPREFIXx;1.2.0.677;' \
	-e 's;xPREFIXCOMMASx;1, 2, 0, 677;' \
	-e 's;xSUFFIXx; dev/metal-104;' \
    /u/jik/metal/version-info/get-version-info.curl.in > get-version-info.curl.tmp.HYDE.256; \
mv get-version-info.curl.tmp.HYDE.256 get-version-info.curl
make[1]: *** wait: No children.  Stop.
make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
make[1]: Leaving directory `/scratch/jik/metal/version-info'
make: *** [version-info.all] Error 2
$ 

This makes me suspect that I need to compile a new version of Make to
go along with my new version of cygwin1.dll.  Any pointers for how to
do that without modifying major chunks of my Cygwin installation?
I.e., if Make needs to be compiled using the new snapshot's header
files, libraries, etc., how do I configure my Make build tree in such
a way that it'll use the files out of the Cygwin snapshot build and
source trees, rather than my needing to install the snapshot files in
c:\cygwin in place of the files that were there previously?

Thanks,
