Hi
I'm back in business :)

I switched from native Win32 to cygwin because of the non-matching
Win32 permissions.
Cygwin ACL's are sometimes fucked up by inheritance.

So I have several improvements.
Patches inlined because gmail uploader fails on my proxy

Several xemacs ideas:

* I added -mwindows to the winclient linker step which results in a
much improved winclient.
I'll take this patch to xemacs-patches by myself.

* parseCommandLine() does not work on cygwin this way.
It uses the Win32 API to find files, and should be special cased to
use the POSIX API.
I'll discuss this at xemacs-beta

* xemacs-21.5.28-3 uses slow defaults:

=A0Compiling in support for extra debugging code.
=A0Compiling in support for runtime error checking.
=A0WARNING: ---------------------------------------------------------
=A0WARNING: XEmacs will run noticeably more slowly as a result.
=A0WARNING: Error checking is on by default for XEmacs beta releases.
=A0WARNING: ---------------------------------------------------------

hmm. 21.5.28 is stable for me and upstream. maybe remove this.

* build failure on 1.7:
In file included from
/usr/src/xemacs-21.5.28-3/src/xemacs-21.5.28/src/console-msw.h:41,
=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 from

error: conflicting types for 'wcstok'
/usr/include/wchar.h:92: error: previous declaration of 'wcstok' was here

This needs a patch upstream. Maybe I'll take it upstream.
