I just thought I'd report back on this issue.

Yes, John's tla binary seems to work on winxp but I haven't done any
real hammering on it because I'm still setting up the build env.

The really cool thing is that I set up the Cygwin OpenSSH server as well
and I can now ssh from a Linux box, run tla and X display my favourite
*nix edit (Nedit) back to the Linux machine. Finally after a decade,
windows is almost usable :-).
