hmm, do you have a test case that I can try? I just tried a couple tests
using the stuff installed from my sandbox build, and I seem to be
getting expected output on Cygwin.

For example, I just generated a VCR.1 page using the VCR.xml source from
the docbook2X home page, and I'm getting output that's identical to
your VRC.1 output at http://docbook2x.sourceforge.net/screenshots/VCR.1
