too bad nobody is working on that at all either.

I thought you and Mike Hansen were working on that, and expected to have it done for Sage 5.0 next month.

I might be persuaded to have a look at that once I get all the Solaris ports done. 64-bit OpenSolaris is my main aim, but I'd like to get Sage building on fulvia (Solaris 10 x86) as well as 64-bit SPARC. Fortunately, 95% of the issues affecting one Solaris platform affect another, so they are likely to come together.

Is there available a detailed document about how to set up Cygwin, what's needed to install Sage, then a list of the issues?

Does Sage actually compile on Cygwin, but just not run well (which is the case with 64-bit SPARC), or does it simply not build at all?
