Dear Mike,
Here's the output of ./configure

checking for X... (cached) no
checking for X11 header files... checking for X11
libraries... checking for XCreateWindow in
-lXwindow... (cached) no
couldn't find any!  Using -lX11.
checking for main in -lXbsd... (cached) no
It is indicating it couldn't locate the X11
libraries, althought the path I've specified within
the windows environment path to includes the
following directory
/usr/X11R6/bin/usr/X11R6/lib/usr/X11R6/X11/lib/usr/X11R6/X11/bin
IIRC configure does *not* use the path to locate X (reason: finding the 
X libraries does not indicate where the X headers are!). Run 
'./configure --help' and it is very likely there is some argument to 
tell where the X stuff is.

Using the path to locate libraries is a Windowism. I suspect cygwin does 
*not* do that at all, even for a dlopen (but IANAG)

HaND,
