Let me rephrase.

That method does work on my system.  I'm running the release candidate 
for Swarm-2.2, so it could be the problem you find has been fixed. 
Swarm for windows in that big "pretest package" approach got up to 
version 13 or something, and more recently there is a Cygwin swarm 
install prepared by Marcus Daniels.  That is a file called "swarm.exe" 
that you run and it does the whole cygwin install routine for you.  It 
worked fine for me last September, on a machine that was clean and new. 
  Depending on what you did to make the other Swarm work, your mileage 
may vary.

If your program does not work on your system, either you should post a 
bug report--description of the problem & backtrace from gdb, or you 
should update to the newest test version of Swarm.  I still think the 
right thing is to either fix your program or the Swarm install.

In my system, I opened up Heatbugs, changed the averager sequences to 
min sequence, and it still worked.  So that's why I think it is OK now, 
or at least in Linux.

If you really think there's a Swarm bug, you could make a tar.gz file of 
your program and email either swarm-support or me (privately) with the 
address, I would test to see if it works here.

I do not use Windows much, and did not try the newest version, which is 
the last before the final version of Swarm-2.2.  But on December 17, 
2004, the link to the Cygwin Windows installer  was (paraphrasing from a 
note that Marcus sent me):

 http://www.santafe.edu/projects/swarm/cygwin/setup.exe

Java binaries for Windows:

http://www.santafe.edu/~mgd/Swarm-2.2-java.tar.gz

Again, if you want to know how to install or use these, all I can say is 
ask in swarm-support with details about what you tried and the Windows 
users are nice and usually willing to help.
