[BRLTTY] Help with building brltty in Cygwin

Hi all,

I'm having all sorts of fun trying to build a Win version of brltty from 
svn.

I'm on a Win7 box, 64-bit, and I've used Cygwin's setup.exe to do an 
install-from-internet.

./autogen runs fine, no errors.
./configure --enable-relocatable-install gives me a warning about a 
missing libbraille, so I've gone off to find libbraille (which doesn't 
seem to be available amongh the Cygwin packages).

Building libbraille in Cygwin is turning out to be a royal pain. Does 
anyone have any pointers? Although the configure stage seems to complete 
without warnings, there are errors in the log, and the make stage fails 
altogether.

Log files on request...

Cheers,
--
