[egenix-users] mxExperimental on cygwin

[Mark McEahern]

Hi, here's a patch that allowed me to build and install mxExperimental on
cygwin.  I previously sent a message that is being held for moderator
approval detailing the error messages I was getting when trying to install.
I didn't do anything special when installing gmp on cygwin:  I used the
latest (4.1) and simply did './configure; make; make install'.

The patch:
