I go beyond the bleading edge of Cygwin. I put the latest nightly snapshot on
my PC before rsync'n perl and smoking. I've created a procedure to be able to
switch back over the nightly snaps until it works. Not as automated as Andres'
scripts in blame digging, but still, good for both. I do this in combination
with installing the latest (even beta if available) utils and development
tools.

On HP-UX and AIX, I try to build the monday snaps from gcc once in a while,
but at the moment, AIX ain't happy with that. Maybe I'll try again tuesday
[ though my AIX box takes over 72 hours to rebuild gcc from scratch :( ]
