I have nothing against re-enabling the cygwin port. I did
disable it because there were problems in the past, but they were
addressed with patches like this.

Cesar Strauss was the originator and/or creator of the cgwin
binary packages on the gEDA website. Cesar do you have a more recent
patch or patches for the work that you did for cygwin? Doesn't have to
be perfect, but I would like to get gEDA/gaf working out of the box under
cygwin and at some point get the mingw port functional too.

PS. Note, I'm quite interested in getting gEDA/gaf building and running under
cygwin and/or mingw, however, I am not volunteering to create or maintain
the ports. That's latest position. :-)
