  +1 from me.  I'd like us to be ready to support graphite on Cygwin; I
suspect it'll be of interest to the fortran-and-number-crunching types.

  BTW, I'm currently in the middle of a gcc-4.4.0 testrun, but as soon as that
finishes (sometime tomorrow!) I'll update my installation with your new libs
and start giving them a bit of testing by using them to build some GCCs.

    cheers,
