And VCDEasy (http://www.vcdhelp.com/vcdeasy.htm) full version only -- by virtue of the fact that it includes cdrdao and vcdimager inside, and each of THOSE violates cygwin's GPL...VCDEasy.exe *itself* does not appear to be a cygwin app.
Worse, the executables for vcdimager AND for cdrdao that vcdeasy distributes contain some code that checks for cygwin1.dll IN THE EXE's DIRECTORY and ***quits*** if it is removed, even if cygwin1.dll exists in the system PATH. That is, they not only deliberately ignore the system cygwin1.dll even if the windows runtime loader finds it, but they also REQUIRE two spearate copies of cygwin1.dll -- one in the vcdimager subfolder and another in the cdrdao subfolder. This is embarassing.
