Ok, so we are really going to support cygwin (why the heck did I ask
for that...???).
Today, strange things happened, things that used to work, were suddenly
broken:
- metapost does no more build (no problem with 1.500, but 1.501 and 1.502
fail)
- luatex 0.60.2 is dumping stack, so this message
http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20100715.110051.e7d65655.en.html
is wrong now and I don't know, what has changed
it's no problem for the pdf, but the exit code is no more 0, so context
behaves like "context --once" and that's annoying
Unfortunately I don't have time now, to look into the details...
(my motivation for that is not so high, I just hope, that one day I'll no
more need ms-win for my work...)
Cheers, Peter
