I am trying to build vss2svn under cygwin on Windows XP. I have got to

As far as I can tell, I have boost 1.33.1 installed, so that *should* be
OK, shouldn't it. I spend most of my time developing on an XP box
so,unfortunately, I have little experience of cygwin / Unix development.
David, maybe I missed something here but why are you building under
Cygwin? Both of these programs were developed initially on Windows, with
Linux build support added later on. Were you under the impression that
they are *nix only?
The ssphys folder contains a VS2005 solution file that should enable
building it there. The ssphys.exe program is called by the Perl script
at runtime using command-line execution, so as long as you build ssphys
then place it in the same folder as vss2svn.pl (or in your path) you can
run the latter just fine. You don't need to mess with Build.PL in that case.
FYI regarding the nightlies, all they did was "compile" the Perl script
into an .exe so that people who didn't have Perl installed could run
vss2svn.exe. But I never worked on getting ssphys building in the
nightly, I always just waited for one of the ssphys developers to upload
a new binary.
