Not really a bug report, but I was unsure where to post it.  Just on a whim,
I
tried compiling and installing hugs on cygwin using the unix source tarball.
Seems
to work fine, including the ffi (with .so's rather then .dll's of course).
'wicked cool', as they say up here in new england. However, I havent really
tested anything hard, just a simple ffi example (using a Ptr type and
calling simple functions... ). Since I use msc most of the time anyway, this
is a bit of wheel spinning on my part.  Just curiousity. <* grin*>.
The readme in the src/unix directory is a bit out of date, and talks about
cygwin
version beta 16 and 17.  Things seem to work better then that file claims,
but then again I don't think they are talking about using gcc like I did.
