...not at all really. But, it might seem that way.

That's a very refreshing sentiment.  I quite understand.

possibly--I don't know the details of the comfort connector.  What I
will say is that my brief google on your specific issue/problem suggests
that either (1) the dll that you have is too old wrt the libraries used
to compile the connector and/or (2) you have more than one dll and the
first one in the path is too old.

I'll be more than happy to send you one of mine from a recent full
cygwin install if you like (send me an email off-list if inclined).  I'd
also suggest doing a full system search on cygwin1.dll to rule out the
possibility of multiple files.

I understand.  Hopefully, that won't be necessary.  But, unfortunately,
I'm not familiar w/ this connector and can only (barely) help
peripherally.  Hopefully, the author will come forward.
