Thanks,
This is a new try. It seems to work, but I can only test it on my PC.

Do you use cvs? In that case you can use cvs diff to generate
patches.

-w is not correct I think since it ignores all spacing.
I think you should do a normal (cvs) diff -u and remove
trailing \r from the resulting diff. djgpp comes with
a dtou (dos to unix conversion program). Unfortunately
cygwin doesn't. Dan mailed a short C program sometime ago.
Perhaps that can be included in the distribution. You can
also make up a little sed or perl script.
This seems to work:

sed -e 's/\012$//' < patch

I also use cygwin. There are two aspects to this:

1) inspect the output of the cygwin mount command
This looks like this:
   C:\cygwin on / type user (binmode)
   c: on /dev/c type user (textmode,noumount)

You should unpack and check out the gnugo-stuff in a binmode
mounted directory.

2) I use the cygwin vim. That produces unix line endings on
   a binmode mounted directory. You can also download a
   more use friendly screen oriented version of vim called gvim
   for win32 from the vim download sites.
