Hi,

I tried "cygwin-inst-20051106.tar.bz2". Rebuilt apache and mod_perl. It 
didn't help. Same problem as before.

Is there any point in trying to rebuild perl as  well?

BTW i think there is a bug in the snapshot in file 
/usr/include/sys/stdio.h, line 338. Had to change:

-ssize_t _EXFUN(__getline, (char **, size_t *, FILE *));
+ssize_t _EXFUN(__getline, (char **, size_t *, int, FILE *));

in order to be able to compile apache.

Don't know where to report this though.
