  As it happens it was kinda late and I couldn't see where exactly the command
line args were coming from, and I thought maybe something was sorting the -l
options to the end for me, which is why I tried the experiment in the first

  Ta, applied, with this ChangeLog entry:

	* ld-bootstrap/bootstrap.exp:  Also pass '-liconv' to linker when
	linking statically on Cygwin, necessitated by '-lintl'.

  I'll just give your patch for tail vs. cmp a quick test, then it's on to
open a can of weak symbol worms...

    cheers,
