Hi,
 
I was wondering if anyone could help me in building the XWin.exe from
the XFree86 source tree?  I'm running into a lot of problems.  First
off, I've read the documentation on the xfree86-cygwin site and have
still been unable to properly build it.  My questions are:
 
In the /xc/config/cf directory, do I copy over the cygwin.cf file to the
site.def file?  Do I then run make World?  I've tried this and I've come
up with 2 errors  every time.
 
Can the XWin.exe be built on a Linux machine or does it have to be built
on a Microsoft machine?
 
Basically, I am not clear on how to setup the configuration and or what
environment the XWin.exe should be created in (Linux, Microsoft).
 
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
