I don't expect anyone to deal with running FlightGear under Cygnus' X,
right? Besides, this sure isn't worth a lot of trouble with the Cygwin gang.
We just should keep in mind there's a problem and add a note in the proper
places (I'll do so in the next version of the Getting Started).
Sure, a better solution might be having the configure scripts detecting X
being installed in conjunction with Cygwin and spitting a corresonding
message. It souldn't be too hard (I recall at least the PLIB configure
script noted the X libs being found as such).
Regards, Michael
