That's the tail end of my efforts to bring VNC to Cygwin. I originally
attempted to, ah, trigger a rebuild of an RPM by grabbing the
corresponding source RPM from FC6, however our RPM rebuild mechanism
wasn't interested in that one. I then grabbed the source code direct
from www.realvnc.com and followed the usual steps for building it.
Naturally it would crash and with a big mess at one point.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Usual rules about submissions and
prizes for same apply.
