Ted,

Is this the original puzzle? There seem to be a lot of givens. Anyway:
Code:
+----------------+----------------+----------------+
| 236  8    4    | 5    7    9    | 236  1    26   |
| 5    36   369  | 8    1    2    | 369  4    7    |
| 7    1    29   | 3    4    6    | 259  59   8    |
+----------------+----------------+----------------+
| 38   9    7    | 2    5    138  | 18   6    4    |
| 238  235  1    | 4    6    38   | 7    58   9    |
| 68   4    56   | 7    9    18   | 158  2    3    |
+----------------+----------------+----------------+
| 9    236  2368 | 1    28   4    | 268  7    5    |
| 4    25   258  | 6    3    7    | 289  89   1    |
| 1    7    268  | 9    28   5    | 4    3    26   |
+----------------+----------------+----------------+
M-wing 25 takes out 2 in R789C3.

W-wing 26 takes out 6 in R8C7, and the puzzle is toast.

Here's a one-stepper...
Code:
Almost xy-wing(25-9) r8c3 fin (5)r8c3
xy-wing (9=2)r3c3 - (2=8)r8c3 - (8=9)r8c8 ; r3c8<>9
||
(5)r8c3 - r6c3=r5c2 - r5c8=r3c8 ; r3c8<>9
