Hello Max,
Hi, but please keep discussion on the mailing list.
I'm copying this to cygwin-apps, please reply to there.
I'm trying to compile Cygwin setup using setup-2.427-1-src.tar.bz2,
Why? That's an old version.
the source tarball that came with the latest Cygwin. The file
RECTwrapper.h (and maybe others) are missing from that tarball.
Known bug, already fixed.
Where can I get it?
Don't - instead just use a later version.
Bear in mind I have a bare-bones Cygwin, no gcc, no make, no cvs, none
of that. I barely have bash. If you could send me a complete,
self-contained tarball, or direct me to somewhere I can get one, I'll
hack the source to work with Visual Studio 03 and try and trace down
this error.
I expect you would have an easier time doing a simple standard install of 
Cygwin (avoiding whatever special arrangement of local packages triggers the 
bug for you).

The setup website is at http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin-apps/

The package that triggers the bug* is something in X. I've since
patched together a semi-usable system in a painstaking fashion.
I've gotten the latest setup from CVS, but it crashes
It does? How?
long before it
gets to the bug*, so I can't diagnose any further for now. Setup
doesn't seem to be tagged, nor does it have a visible history (from
what I can see), so I'm not sure how to get a known good version to
properly diagnose the problem.
Try the setup-200412 branch.
