Hi,

http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2005-04/msg00395.html


Since the cygwin-1.5.21-1 specified that future release might not support win_9x

I think Corrina outlined the basics of what needs to be done quite well. This would be one place which would cause an incompatibility with non-NT- based platforms of course.
