OK, hopefully someone with try cygwin soonish and help Steve resolve the problems. It should definitely compile the threaded modperl. we will look at resolving the MULTIPLICITY alone, later.I have cygwin (for the tools), but haven't looked into compiling Apache/mod_perl with it. From what I understand, cygwin provides a C library (a dll) to get a unix-style API; this is to be contrasted with MinGW, which produces programs that don't rely on 3rd party dlls. cygwin, as well as having the usual .a (static) and .dll libs, does have a .dll.a type of lib, which is an import library. So having such a lib isn't unusual - whether that should be done here is another question ...
