Harold,
We had this discussion in the past, and yes I *have* read the cygwin-xfree
contributor's guide and followed your directions WORD-FOR-WORD, except for
removing the NO_TCP_H and defining font building.
I checked out the Xfree tree with the 4.2.0 sticky tag. I then updated

Alan,
Hmm... as usual I misspoke... I was bitching about the ``findfonts'' script
which runs on the installed fonts rather than on fonts being built.
I'll have to look into the font build utility problem.
I hate it when I get confused. Anyway, here is what I wrote to the XFree86
devel list.
Nicholas,
I just tried... Not as complete as one would hope... Nevermind about
this... :-)
What did you find that was broken? Were there build errors or did it just
not run? See my message that I just sent. I've done a build so far and saw
no problems related to removing -DNO_TCP_H. I
O.k. If the problem still exists, contact Keith Packard directly. It's
more than likely he missed the post too. But this code is his domain
and he's been banging on it a lot lately.
I'm sure Keith will respond.
Alan.

Am I to follow the old adage that no news is good news in regards to Test 63?
Test 60 through Test 63 changed over a thousand lines of code, with a lot of
those changes occuring in Test 63; I can hardly believe that we haven't
trigged lots of new bugs.

Nicholas,
Let's assume I have followed the directions exactly (because this is what
has happened in the past when I followed them exactly). When
cross-compiling, why is make World trying to use the foreign utilities to
build the fonts? Shouldn't it be using the utilities under

Well there is no point in keeping stale defines around, is there?
Obviously you were curious, otherwise you wouldn't have invested so much
time. :-)
Right, there is no point to keeping around stale defines. Of course I was
curious, and that's part of my problem: I get too

Frederic,
However, it depends how you manage to contribute with the
paid development to the XFree project. I mean, would such
development be made available to the community after a
while (say 3 months or more for example) ?
Oh no, that was exactly the misunderstanding that I was trying to
