RE: X programs compile, but crash

["Suhaib Siddiqi" <ssiddiqi at inspirepharm dot com>]

which make world did not make DLLs?  Are you using old binutils
from Cygwin 1.1.2?

How about upgrading everything to Cygwin 1.1.3?  I noticed you
have cygwin1.1.2?  I did mention befoire, the newer
binaries work better with July 19th snapshot,
Cygwin 1.1.3 is better.
