First off, please don't post HTML mail to this list. There are lots of

Yup, I did the old port but this is a "new port" that works even better.
I do not know if you ever looked at the old jikes build process but it
was held together with string and tape. The CVS version of jikes supports
a rock solid build process. You can even compile this new version
of jikes using a Cygwin cross compiler (the old version could not be
cross compiled).

How special does it need to be? I thought folks using
cygwin might like to know about cool software that has been
ported to cygwin. Am I wrong about that?
