almost.

no, this is not necessary.

could you please propagate fricas.el and INSTALL.CYGWIN from trunk to
realease.  (And I guess also

        * src/interp/postpar.boot: Correct a typo.

No?

maybe we should wait for Bill or Alfredo whether the package actually
works?

CYGWIN NOTE.

Before you install cygwin binaries you need to install Cygwin via
setup.exe from http://cygwin.org/

Download fricas-1.0.6.cygwin.tar.bz2.  Start the Cygwin setup program.
The first few questions can be answered with their default values, until
you get to the "Select Packages" dialog.

Clicking on a little + will expand the list of packages. You should
select apart from the defaults the following:

           In Devel: gcc-mingw
                     gcc-mingw-core
           In Math:    clisp
           In Publishing: psutils
                          tetex
                          tetex-base
                          tetex-bin
                          tetex-extra
                          tetex-tiny
                          tetex-x11
           In X11: xterm
                   xinit
                   font-adobe-dpi75
           In Editors: emacs
                       emacs-X11

Complete the Cygwin installation process.  

Restart the setup program, but now click on "install from local
directory".  Leave the setting of the cygwin root directory as is, but
set the "local package directory" to the directory containing FriCAS
tarball, as a MS Windows path.
