comment Dramatist package putting speaker in different places when mixing prose and verse
There are features in the drama* environment for verse, such as line numbering, that I don't want to lose out on. Using the drama environment instead of the starred version would prevent me from using those features.

comment “web2c does not exist” error when trying to build using pdflatex
My colleague isn't comfortable with the command line, so I created a small bash script that used a Makefile to build any LaTeX files that changed. The idea was he could just double click the script and everything would hopefully just "work". That's why I tried using the one with Cygwin, to simplify installation instead of installing both Cygwin and TL2012 on Windows.

comment Problem inserting .pdf_tex file from Inkscape
It is correct to use \input{file.pdf_tex}. If you open that file, it has instructions for its usage. Like egreg said, you need to have \usepackage{graphicx} in your preamble for this to work.

comment Citations point to the first page
Can you provide a minimal working example of the problem? How are you building your document? You need to run bibtex after pdflatex, then run pdflatex two more times to get the references right, (i.e. run in this order: pdflatex, bibtex, pdflatex, pdflatex)
