At least for the time being, I, personally, expect to continue using
Visual C++ and not cygwin32.  So it would probably be a matter of
having two different ports rather than one replacing the other.

Until this and other such items can be sorted out, it is somewhat
unlikely that I, personally, will have time to look at the diffs.
Maybe someone else will want to...

Check out the NT port at http://www.cyclic.com/tkcvs.  I haven't run
it myself, but as far as I know it works.  The author has made some
noises about a new version--if that interests you, I'd suggest
subscribing to the tkcvs-discuss mailing list (see the same web page)
and bringing up the topic there.
