I'm not saying building does not work or that it is not said so in the
FAQ. Simply that the Cygwin and Lesstif FAQs contradict each other. The
Cygwin FAQ says binaries of Lesstif for Cygwin are on the Lesstif site,
but no amount of searching will find them! I suggest 2 things be done:

(1) Warning the Cygwin webmaster that their FAQ is in error

(2) Adding something on the Lesstif "DOWNLOAD" page explaining that
Lesstif DLLs are *not* available.
