Cygwin is now fixed -- more ripping out of wide string capability...

As for Borland, I don't know what it is complaining about.  Any Borland
experts out there able to decipher this?  The change that set this off was
templatizing some of the string output functions on the char type to support
wide strings.  If no one wants figure it out I'll just pull wstring support
for Borland 5.6.4.  Although I suppose we should file a bug report since the
we are now getting to the point that the rest of the modern compilers are
working. BTW, Borland 5.5.1 in the MetaComm tests suceeds because the new
wstring code is ifdef'ed out...
