RE: Trying to build crm114 (20050721) under CygWin 1.5.18-1

It didn't help -- I am nearly illerate at make
(I have some other system knowledge of linking objects
and library's etc so I do know some of the terminology)
so all I am doing is trying to parse it out logically 
and systematically trying ideas as I interpret the
suggestions like "try to add..." or "order is backwards..."

No one's fault but mine and perhaps the original author,
but then the software is free so that just leaves me. <grin>

I am not qualified to have an opinion, I just want it
to make and run. <grin>
