Dumn question:
Given that I have checked out your cvs repository here, how do I go about 
making a .tar file for distribution?

set QTDIR=J:\MinSys\home\Angus\qt3
set MINGW=J:\MinGW
set 
PATH=J:\MinSys\home\Angus\qt3\bin;J:\MinGW\bin;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS
set QMAKESPEC=win32-g++
mingw32-make dist

*** No rule to make target `dist'.  Stop.

Or, alternatively, I host lyx_setup_136.exe on your site ;-P
