I am trying to improve support for mingw (and, as a side effect,
cygwin) in the configure script. Specifically, there are some
#define's that are needed by the older version of cygwin, but are
included in the newer snapshots and upcoming net release.
We need Martin' input on this. My gut fell is to create new headers -
syswinnt.h, syscommctrl.h, syswinspool.h etc which include the real header
but also provide definitions if they don't exist. There is precedent for
this but I'm not sure if Martin would advocate it. I don't like putting
every single #define in configure since it makes configure take a *really*
long time on cygwin.
