I hesitated to install the extra fonts rightaway, so as not to take too many 
steps at once. Also, the way the build process reacted on the update of the 
Latex l3kernel package makes me believe that - on my system - the Windows-based 
Latex distribution is used, not one that comes with Cygwin. So I need to 
install the missing fonts in that distribution or see that CMake finds the 
Cygwin-based Latex tools.

Hm, some further investigation leads to xelatex as the culprit - that is coming 
from the Miktex installation (my Windows version of Latex). But there is no 
xelatex in my Cygwin installation (Cygwin:  setup version 2.844, 64-bits, 
installed 29 april 2014). So I guess this is where I do have to get these extra 
fonts for Miktex.



Regards,

Arjen
