I saw that d5e7f7039e03 changed the default pdf viewer from xpdf to
evince. I wonder whether xdg-open would not be the more sensible

I do not have any idea whether this works on cygwin) -- which will most
probably be evince for Gnome systems and okular for KDE systems.
According to [1], Cygwin has also the "cygstart" utility which should
start the native default PDF viewer.

See now Isabelle/8c37cb84065f.
The Cygwin bundle will override PDF_VIEWER=cygstart to use Sumatra PDF,
and thus avoid an extra dependency.
