Seems reasonable but I've been removed from development for some time. One thing to keep in mind, our scripts assume a GNU environment. Shouldn't be a problem with Cygwin but it will be with Darwin. The simple solution is to add CoreUtils and others to your path. Unfortunately, that breaks ./configure because of a uname incompatibility (I think). In the end, it was easier to install ubuntu on my ibook. -- Carlo J.
