Ok. This one I need to fix in xc/lib/Imakefile. Under cygwin the make does
not
go down to subdirectories. It needs to be fixed. I have not gotten time
for it lately but will be fixed sometimes very soon. For now what you can
do
cd to each subdirectory in xc/lib/GLU and type make then cd back to
xc/lib/GLU and type
make, you will have libGLU.dll compiled.

Are yu using Cygwin 1.1.8 or April 14th or later snapshot. you need
April 14th or later, snapshot for compilation because of changes in headers.

Forget about it. I mention it several times. Cygwin does not support
nlstype.h
therefore you are out of luck here.

link -lncurses and you should be fine, you can add -lncurses to Makefile or
to cygwin.cf in that case you need to compile everything from scratch.

That was a bug in Imakefile from Harold ;-) It does not descend to
xc/programs/Xserver/os/miext/shadow.
I will fix it. For now cd to xc/programs/Xserver/os/miext/shadow and type
make
then cd back to xc/programs/Xserver/ and type XWin.exe you should be fine.

Yes and no. The problems were due to errors in Imakefile as I mentioned
above.
