[Xastir] Xastir 1.9.1 on cygwin_nt-5.1

[Bernard Tyers]

Hi Alex,

Yes of course. That didn't occur to me until you mentioned it.

I am building it from source at the moment.

After about 5 hours (building it on a mini-itx machine..not the  
fastest)...its finished.

I rebuilt Xastir from cvs and its working.

Many thanks to Alex for the pointers in the right way.
