Running the FSL package from FMRIB



I wish to install the new version of FSL (see http://www.fmrib.ox.ac.uk/fsl/).
According to their website:-

"Alternatively, FSL can run natively under Windows XP once you have installed a free package called Cygwin, which is a unix-like environment running inside Windows. Programs that run under Cygwin are real native Windows programs but typically run within the unix-like directory structure that lives in C:\cygwin, which is accessible to all Windows programs. Please note that we cannot offer any support relating to the installation or running of Cygwin!


Cygwin is (normally) extremely easy to install, but unfortunately the latest Cygwin distribution is broken at present - it doesn't work correctly with the latest TCL/TK/Tix, which FSL uses for the GUIs. Therefore it is necessary, if you don't already have Cygwin installed, to install a slightly older version of Cygwin. The following steps are pretty easy - hopefully Cygwin will get fixed soon and we can revert to the easier default Cygwin installation!"

Is this problem still current (was it ever?). Can I install Vsn 1.5.21-1 and run FSL without a problem?.
