What version of w3m are you using?  Was it pre-built or did you build it
yourself?

I attempted to use the pre-built 0.1.9 but it crashes on Cygwin 1.1.8.
I also have attempted to build 0.1.9, 0.1.10, and 0.1.11pre and all
fail during compilation with what appears to be sloppy coding.

I have found the following on the w3m developers list:

    http://mi.med.tohoku.ac.jp/~satodai/w3m-dev-en/200009.month/223.html

In the above, the author supplies a patch against 0.1.11-tb6 but I cannot
find the corresponding source archive (unless 0.1.11-tb6 is just another
name for 0.1.11pre).  Addtionally, the patch does not correct the problems
that I have already found in 0.1.11pre.

Can anyone offer suggestions or patches on how to get w3m to build cleanly
under Cygwin?

Thanks,
Jason
