  But in very much the wrong place!

  Almost certainly.  I notice in your cygcheck:

mingw-runtime        3.12-3

that you have the very latest mingw-runtime package, released just yesterday.
Try using setup.exe to roll that back to the prev version; that should fix it
for you.  We seem to have a packaging problem, the headers should live in
/usr/include/mingw!

  Check the welcome message, it has instructions on how to request any past
post to the list.  To find the message number, go to that url you posted,
click on the 'raw text' link and you'll see the number prominently in the
first few headers; in this case, we go to

and see there:

Sun Apr 08 04:28:14 2007
Return-Path: <cygwin-return-131864-listarch-cygwin=sourceware dot org at
cygwin dot com>

so if you send email to "cygwin-get.131864" AT the usual sourceware dot org
address, you'll receive a reply with the original post as an attachment; you
can then reply to that and keep threading intact.


    cheers,
