Thanks, Chuck and Dave for pointing me towards 'objdump -p'. I'd got
as far as trying objdump, but hadn't spotted the -p option.
MinTTY is a -mwindows app, which so far seemed to work well on XP and
Vista, because no console is popped up, not even momentarily. Not so
on Windows 7, unfortunately. f
Apologies for having failed to google an answer, but is there an easy

More specfically, is rxvt a 'console' or a 'windows' program?

Note
The package mintty-0.3.5-1 has been added to the Cygwin distribution.
It will appear in the 'Shells' category of the Cygwin setup program.
DESCRIPTION
===
MinTTY is a new terminal emulator for Cygwin. It is based on code
from PuTTY 0.60 by Simon Tatham and team.
Features include:
* Xterm
MinTTY version 0.3.5 is available from http://mintty.googlecode.com.
It addresses one serious bug and brings a few small enhancements:
The bug:
- The --config option was unusable, because MinTTY would attempt to
invoke '--config' as the child process command.
Enhancements:

Vim activates application mouse mode, which means clicks go to vim

clipboard. Shift overrides that.
