If anyone wants to help me with something, grab the xterm-186 original source (google for 'xterm', you'll find it), grab the -src package for our xterm-185 package, copy and rename xterm-185-*.sh to xterm-186-1.sh and try 'xterm-186-1.sh mkdirs && xterm-186-1.sh conf && xterm-186-1.sh'. You'll quickly note that 'X.Org Foundation' is somehow getting into CFLAGS as a raw string, causing gcc to bork. It seems that this may be somehow caused by macros in xterm's configure scripts that copy the CFLAGS set by the imake configuration files.

I haven't got a heck of a lot of time to look into this, so I would appreciate it if anyone with a little understanding of auto* and shell scripts could take a peek at why xterm is failing to build under Cygwin/X at the moment.
