Just yet another note of thanks. I just updated cvs and tried again. 
Here is my history and output for reference:

Thanks! I removed this from my list on the wiki as well.

Well I must say I really am happy to be helping out in any way I can. 
Without this project, Scribus on Windows wouldn't even have a hope of 
running anytime soon, and if I can help advance the opportunity for 
folks to access Scribus while at the same time help out with the testing 
and documentation of the kde-cygwin project then I can both feel happy 
that I helped both the fine efforts of the folks behind the kde-cygwin 
project as well as those interested in bringing more attention and 
opportunity to both kde-cygwin apps including Scribus! :) So huge thanks 
to you and Peter for all you have done to make this possible!
