Re: Failure in building Emacs 23.0.50 on Cygwin (fwd)

[d.henman]

Angelo,

content wise it looks good to me, but I think that changing it to the following 
format, same content as your patch (see modifed patch below ), but this format 
makes it easier to understand and would give it more robustness for future 
mainenance and any possible changes and extensions for CYGWIN specific issues.

Also I would like to wait and get a response from the cygwin developers, before 
any commit is made.

Regards,
  Darel Henman
