In previous versions (cygwin, xfree, ddd), DDD did compile and run out
of the box. I believe that is why no one took it upon themselves
previously.

Okay. That is good to know.
However, a lot has happened since then and I stand by my point that
someone will have to dedicate some time to getting this to work. The
LessTif questions could be a red herring... the problem might be that
there are some #ifdef __CYGWIN__'s in the code that cause problems with
the new Cygwin 1.5.3-x + versions. However, it could be any number of
issues.
