OK, I'm making progress with getting XFCE to compile under cygwin (with 
help of one of the XFCE developers), but now we're running into the 
following:

XFCE has a plugin mechanism, based on shared libraries. These plugins 
use functions/symbols from the program that they 'plug in to'. I.e. if I 
have appA, and libB is a plugin for appA, then libB contains calls that 
are defined in appA.

How do I get this to work under cygwin? Obviously I can't link libB 
against appA!
