You are correct.  I discovered last evening after my post and seeing you had 
posted some updates that a cvs update did resolve the running issue.  With a 
current cvs I was able to compile in Cygwin and run osgAnimate, osgPlanets, 
osgWindows cow.osg and osgViewer cow.osg.  

The issue with the paths still seems to be present in that now I must be in the 
test data directory even with OSG_FILE_PATH set and I must also have the path 
for the osgPlugins not just their parent directory in my PATH variable.

I have discovered as well that osgPlanets completes normally, osgWindows and 
osgViewer with the cow.osg will hang when I escape to quit on them and the 
interesting one which may help us with these hangs is that when I ran 
osgAnimate one time and I was not in the test data directories I got a screen 
with the checkerboard but no airplanes and when I exited I returned to console 
mode as expected.  But when I was in the test data directory and ran osgAnimate 
and saw the checkerboard and airplanes then when I escaped to quit the process 
hangs.

So far the only thing (besides a lot of prints to the screen to try to debug is 
add the X_LIBS value to the OTHER_LIBS value in the CYGWIN section of Makedefs. 
I will post that to osg-submissions.  I ma unsure why I had to do that butit 
cleared up the SwapBuffers and other errors.

That was just a WAG but there is something - some part of some of the test 
programs that is waiting to exit and causing the main process to hang - see 
above about the osgAnimate.  By the way - I don't mean to say it is strictly 
OSG - their could obviously be an idiosyncracy with Cygwin despite their 
success converting Linux apps to Cygwin we might have some oddity here.

Thanks for the help and it sure is great to see some of these windows compiling 
and running again.
