While building ImageMagick ImageMagick-6.2.9, I found out the the currently distributed cygwin fontconfig version to be too old (version 2.2 or so). and two years of developed have resulted in a (as of now) fontconfig-2.4.1.
I found that this also builds well in the cygwin developement environment and seems to be aware of installing the usr/bin/cygfontconfig-1.dll files as well (As long as x-windows is not running). New version of fontconfig as found at: http://fontconfig.org/release/ New version of ImageMagick found at: ftp://ftp.imagemagick.org/pub/ImageMagick/ I don't know how to find out who is in charge of the fontcont, but it should be updated for everyone. I don't beleive I found ImageMagick in cygwin's respository, but is was a straight process to build.
