Cannot access Samba share; cannot rebuild cygwin1.dll

I'm running into two problems using Cygwin 1.5.25-15 in Windows 7.
First is the "function not implemented" problem that is plaguing
Samba users with Windows 7. (I even upgraded to Samba 3.4.3 in the
unlikely event that it fixed the problem. No dice.) This issue was
already covered in another thread and mentioned a DLL that was
available to fix the problem.
When I saw that the fix was applied to the CVS I tried to recompile
Cygwin using the CVS compilation information that's provided on the
programming FAQ. Everything went okay until I decided to be cautious
and run a make check to verify the new cygwin1.dll. The check failed
with the following error:
"gcc: The -mno-cygwin flag has been removed; use a
mingw-targeted cross-compiler."
I use Cygwin to make a local, NTFS-formatted backup of my file
server, which is running Ubuntu. So, it's critical that this bug is
resolved. Until this fix is integrated into the official release,
please send me a link to where I can get the DLL to access my Samba
shares again.
It would probably be good to make this link public as well. With
Windows 7 now out and multiple people experiencing this problem, the
fixed DLL should be made public with a very blatant warning about using it.
