Is there any objections in setting the svn:executable property on
the ttf fonts?

The problem is that on Windows, for reasons that are beyond me, the
ttf fonts are not seen if they don't have the executable bit set.

A more ambitious goal would be adding a cygwin-package target such
that "make cygwin-package" in development/cygwin builds a lyx package
ready to be installed through the cygwin installation tool ;-)

Give me the necessary time (don't hold your breath, though :) and I'll
see what I can come up with. It will help if you can provide the
generic-build-script above. I see you used the official cygwin directives
for building a package. I never found the time to go through all the
official instructions and I build a cygwin package and accompanying
setup.ini file by (mostly) hand ;-)
