cvs-1.11.0-1 fails to build

Hi,

I'm having a problem building cvs-1.11.0-1.  GDBM_EXPORT is not picked up
as a macro (which I assume it is, as it's used to declare functions), and
this results in parse errors and gcc being generally unhappy.  I'm
attaching the exact error message.
This is probably because I have gdbm-1.8.0-4, and cvs lists gdbm-1.8.0-3
in its dependences, although Chuck Wilson apparently received no
complaints during the test period (
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-02/msg01333.html ).

This problem has apparently been reported back in March, but to the wrong
list: http://mail.gnu.org/pipermail/info-cvs/2002-March/026364.html
	Igor
