Hmmm, it is problematic to build it with shared libraries.  Circular
dependencies are not possible on Cygwin/Windows (libwwwdir requires
libwwwfile which requires libwwwdir or the other way round).
The same with the optional parts, libwwwxml, libwwwdav, libwwwzip
require libwwwapp which requires the other three to build...

Easiest approach would be to put all in one library, call it `libwww'
and then build the executables against this instead of using more than a
dozen small libs.

Currently the build is halted, seems to be not that easy when the expat,
zip and dav parts should be included.

I'll try to get it up somehow, wait a minute.
