[Spread-users] Exception in SP_receive... Compiling with newer Visual Studios...

[Jim Kleckner]

I've been meaning to publish patches for using cygwin
with and without -mno-cygwin.  Is that something
of interest here?  I normally use cygwin but -mno-cygwin
is needed when you create DLLs for Excel etc.
