Re: what library provides __b64_ntop? (libresolv does not)


There appears to be an implementation of that function in cygwin's
src/newlib/libc/sys/linux/net/base64.c.  Is it possible to link
against whatever that gets compiled to?  If not, could that function
be copied to cygwin's libresolv?  When the header and implementation
are already there it seems a shame not to make it available.
