-** Cygwin build of Emacs hangs after rebasing Cygwin DLLs
-
-Usually, on Cygwin, one needs to rebase the DLLs if an application
-aborts with a message like this:
-
-  C:\cygwin\bin\python.exe: *** unable to remap C:\cygwin\bin\cygssl.dll to
-  same address as parent(0xDF0000) != 0xE00000
-
-However, since Cygwin DLL 1.5.17 was released, after such rebasing,
-Emacs hangs.
-
-This was reported to happen for Emacs 21.2 and also for the pretest of
-Emacs 22.1 on Cygwin.
-
-To work around this, build Emacs like this:
-
-  LDFLAGS='-Wl,--enable-auto-import -Wl,--enable-auto-image-base' ./configure
-  make LD='$(CC)'
-  make LD='$(CC)' install
-
-This produces an Emacs binary that is independent of rebasing.
-
-Note that you _must_ use LD='$(CC)' in the last two commands above, to
-prevent GCC from passing the "--image-base 0x20000000" option to the
-linker, which is what it does by default.  That option produces an
-Emacs binary with the base address 0x20000000, which will cause Emacs
-to hang after Cygwin DLLs are rebased.
