As far as I recall, libpari_dll.h is a file which should be created
during the construction of the library. there should be documentation
explaining the process on the cygnus site. I suppose it's possible that
there was some change from b19.1 (which is what the config scripts were
designed for) to b20[.1] which breaks this.

Yes you should actually have /bin/sh -- many of the cygnus utilities
expect it to be there (or at least a link), especially make. this is one
of a few cygwin installation issues.

as an aside, bash from b19.1 was notorious for crashing... has this been
fixed?
