RE: compile problems Xutf8TextListToTextProperty not defined


 Oh just follow my suggestion to add the missing symbol
to /xc/lib/X11/X11-def.cpp.
I have compiled XF86 using gcc-2.95.2-7.  It works just fine.
The windows.h header is not being used by XF86. In recent CVS XF86 merged
SGI GLU and HLW which use windows.h under #ifdef WIN32.  I ifdef it out
for cygwin because it was causing too much problems.

Kevin, this is due to you downloading the "experimental" gcc. Gcc
2.95.2-7 is marked as experimental for cygwin's setup, and by default
you would have got an older, more stable gcc.
