David,

Actually I was hoping that Suhaib would see this and tell me what to fix.  I
did at one point get an OpenDX window to appear, but I don't have any
experience with DX to tell if this was the expected window, etc.  It was my
understanding that OpenDX just has Cygwin support built-in now... but you may
be right that there are platform config files that are missing.

Let me know if you find more information about what to do to the package.

I'll cc this to Suhaib's last known address to see if he has any comments.
