Thanks for the data point. I started my build at about noon, and it  
was still going 5 hours later. I don't know what kind of machine it  
is; some Dell desktop. Hearing that it takes you 12 hours at least  
lets me know I made the right decision going home early :-)

By contrast, my 2.13 GHz dual core (not core 2) MacBook Pro builds it  
in under 45 minutes.

I'm sure it's both the slow machine and the Cygwin overhead. I'll just  
let it keep running overnight. Hopefully it will build my target  
binary properly the first time out.

Thanks again!
