Actually, adding this stuff to Cygwin took almost four days of my

Understood. Likewise, because I am not full-time on Cygwin SQLite, it's
taken similar amounts of time from me, which is why I'm ignoring your
xidepend complaints right now. :)
So far it's not even clear if you really can use it in sqlite.
That's definitely a possibility. I'll be posting my thoughts on that in
another part of the thread.
I hope that even if this doesn't end up helping SQLite, though, that the
code is still useful enough to stay in the DLL. I can't be the only one
who has ever had such interop problems.
Given all that, I'd appreciate if you'd first test if the whole effort
was even worth it.
Okay. -2 packages are built now. Announcement elsewhere.
Does that make sense, at least a bit?
Thank you for taking the time to explain.
