[vtk-developers] Kitware VTK cygwin build

[Bill Lorensen]

Dave,

I think it would be good to verify that vtk cygwin builds with cmake
2.8.x. I know it builds with 2.6.

David Doria and I have been going around on this for a few weeks. He
has been working with a cygwin guy to resolve the issue, but their
solution looks complex to me. It would be good to have "the experts"
verify that VTK can indeed be built with cygwin and cmake 2.8.x.
