Well, thanks all anyway. Turns out it actually was a Cygwin problem. I did
a lot of digging and found out that the libxml2 package has somehow managed
to escape installation. I installed the missing component and the problem
has been solved.
So, fontforge (not part of the cygwin package) relied on libxml2 (part of the
cygwin package) and it is a cygwin problem that cygwin's setup.exe didn't know
that it was needed? I don't think that is correct.
I'm in agreement here. I'm also confused as to why Naomi states that the
solution was to install the libxml2 package when she claimed it was not
solving her problem in her first post. In any case, since the problem
is solved, I don't mind just ending this rather pointless thread now.
