Checked the link above, and doesn't seem to have anything to do with my (now)
previous problem with Cygwin...

minires solved the problem. LyX now compiles happily on my brand new Cygwin
installation...

So, this far, I have compiled LyX on cygwin succesfully, both with-xforms and
with-qt.

However, the xforms frontend works fine, while the Qt version eats up all
character: I see only white squares.

But I think that deserves another thread...

Cheers,
