I anticipate that the installer will have the same bugs as the 1.3.x version since the installer code is little different to the previous version. (The one real change being that I've removed all tests for Perl in the installer.)
LyX still requires that Aspell be installed at C:\Aspell but it is now using Aspell 0.6 so the dictionary locations have changed as Stephen has pointed out.
I attach the changes to the build scripts and to the installer. Please commit (I can't --- some problem connecting to the repo with svn+ssh from this Windows box.) I'm sure that Uwe will render my installer superfluous in time but, for now, this commit will bring 1.4 into sync with 1.3.
Using these scripts ensures that the build process is largely automatic. Not quite, because of the autotools horkage :( That means that we have to fire up a Cygwin shell to run autogen.sh but, nonetheless, that'll change eventually.
Much kudos to Michael for his comprehensive HOWTO which made upgrading my environment painless. Building LyX on this 2.7GHz, 512MB RAM machine running XP Home took 96 minutes (24 mins to link) of which only 32 was classified by `time` as user time. I suspect that all those warnings spewed out by the Qt code about dllimport stuff really slow the process down. Should probably not use -Wextra on Windows.
