Hi Peter,

In the past I succeeded with geda-gaf "out of the box" using MXE
i686-pc-mingw32 <http://mxe.cc/>. I failed with geda-pcb though because
of libgd.

I use this simple "wean" script <http://pastebin.com/RdjVnwZn> on
Kubuntu x86_64 GNU/Linux.

Last but not least, the MXE maintainers are very helpful.

Thanks, Enoch.
