It's been two months since your last commit according to what I saw last night.

try to #undef or remove 'HELPSERVICES' from your config.h (assuming
you don't want the defaults) and you get:

gcc -I. -I../include  -g -O2 -c helpserv.c
helpserv.c:516: error: conflicting types for 'hs_notice'
helpserv.c:322: error: previous implicit declaration of 'hs_notice' was here
gmake[1]: *** [helpserv.o] Error 1
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/home/hybrid/hybserv/src'

Then again, I see your point - with just the defaults, it compiles
fine. Issuing a release suggests thorough debugging though, then
again, I'm not trying to cramp your style (or suggest I'd do a better
job at all)

I've just started working recently, as a hobby of mine - I'm under no
pressure from you or anyone else to hurry up and submit anything,
especially unfinished things. However, some of the things I am working
on include cleaning up a bunch of #define statements all across the
place, switching to a PostgreSQL or MySQL backend for storage; redoing
the way config files are processed into something more hybrid-like.

Like I said, just a hobby. weather or not I get bored and move on in a
few days, weeks, or months is left to be seen.

Look above or color me blind, then; your INSTALL file suggests your
last compile check on cygwin to be about 25 revisions behind - perhaps
update that? (current cygwin is 1.5.24-2)
