| The binaries are built from Cygwin version 1.5.25. |
| The source files are included in trunk\deps\third_party\cygwin_src. These are |
| not downloaded with the default gclient configuration, but you can get them |
| directly from the svn server you used to get this source. |

| This contains the necessary Cygwin files to build WebKit. A filemon trace |
| during a build showed which files from cygwin\build are needed. |
| |
| The first change is a binary modification to cygwin1.dll so that /, /bin, |
| /usr etc point to third_party\cygwin. Normally cygwin reads the mounts from |
| HKCU\Software\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin\mounts v2. We trick it into using |
| version 0, which was never used, by binary editing cygwin1.dll. This lets |
| cygwin start without any mounts even if the user already has cygwin installed. |
| setup_mount.bat lets us add these mounts to point to the user's |
| third_party\cygwin directory. |
| |
| The second change is to modify the name of the shared memory structures, so |
| that if another cygwin (of a different version) is running, these two don't |
| collide. |
| |
| The binary modifications to cygwin1.dll were: |
| replacing "mounts v2" with "mounts v0" (two places) |
| replacing "mount registry: 2" with "mount registry: 0" |
| replacing "cygwin1S4" with "cygwin0S4" |
| |
| These can be replayed by running "cygwin_src\changes\convert.py" on cygwin1.dll |
| that's in cygwin_src. |
