Probably. But readline is GPL'd (not LGPL'd), so my company can't bundle it
or anything that uses it with any non-GPL software we distribute. Similar
arguments probably apply to a cygwin based port (not one built using cygwin,
but requiring it to run) - IANAL but the company has to err on the side of
caution here.
