Hi,

all right, I do agree. So if WIN32 macro means Xming only then I'd give my
review for your patch:

No that covers all Microsoft Windows builds...but lets hear what the
Cygwin/X people say.

That is not correct.  WIN32 is not defined under cygwin

(This is somewhat counter-intuitive since the Win32 API is available, but see http://cygwin.com/faq/faq-nochunks.html#faq.programming.preprocessor for reasoning why)

Their tinderbox build is busted (and Xming) without this. See also

So my patch strays a little out of my comfort zone :)

So that patch as it stands is fine with me :-)

I can't just change it to check defined(__MINGW__) || defined(__CYGWIN__), as that prevents xfs (and possibly other users of libXfont) from building on cygwin. I'll look into this some more and try to propose a solution :-)
