Chuck, This was a patch I posted to the XEmacs list that was required due to the library name change (libXpm.dll.a --> libXpm-noX.dll.a). I /almost/ posted a question here about it (i.e., was the name change intentional), but quickly realized that Cygwin package maintainers never do anything unintentional, so I just hit 'delete' instead of 'send'. > >> * Fix: Support renamed xpm no-X library under cygwin. > >Whoops.
