Not yet, I was too busy reading the html docs.

I was going to say "That doesn't seem to be included in the 
package, nor a pointer to it." but that's untrue because the 
content of the README is there, just in a different file 
(FAQ_MSWIN). I'm so used to not reading the docs relating to 
Windows when installing Cygwin packages that it didn't register. 
Thanks for the advice, it works fine now (as far as I have taken 
it). A bit slow, but that's my underpowered machine for you. By 
the way, including the buyild options in the doc is an excellent 
touch; thanks!
