Wow thanks for working over the docs Ralf! I'm now compiling again, and am 
really confident that this time I may make it through. :)

In the mean time I have a question about the requirements listed at:

cygwin installation with the following packages
     * cvs
     * make
     * gcc
     * binutils
     * flex
     * byacc
     * XFree86-base
     * XFree86-prog
http://kde-cygwin.sourceforge.net/qt3/compiling.php

My question has to do specifically with the XFree86-base/prog packages. They 
are no longer listed under X11 but under ZZZRemovedPackages. Is there some 
xorg-X11 packages that we can/should use as alternatives???

Once again thanks so much!

Steven
