This is just to confirm, for the sake of the archive's completeness,  
that Cygwin Ports has builds, or patch sets if you prefer to build  
them from scratch, and that these Cygwin builds provide a working  
command prompt. The only downside is that I don't seem to be able to  
connect through a socket, so I always have to use the network layer  
(via the -h hostname option) to connect to my local server.

regards,
Markus
