And again, an end user configuring their system into a

Shun fcntl, but when someone discards their /bin/mail that
uses it: "stupid".
And again, I'm not asking for nmh to be "stupid". I am all
for sensible defaults. If someone wants to choose a
different locking scheme for whatever reason, it doesn't
bother me. If they can do it at runtime, even better.
How about submitting a patch set
Your order has no effect on my priorities.
that makes nmh work reasonably under
cygwin. I'm not the only person who would rejoice.
As a matter of fact, I have fixed some things. The build is
reasonably clean. inc and folder operations seem to work.
whatnow doesn't, maybe because of (v)fork. post doesn't,
but I haven't looked at it even to determine if it's a
nmh problem.
