Compiling SIP for Cygwin

I have installed python 2.3.x, QT, KDE, XFree etc. and have tried compiling SIP (http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/sip/download.php) so that I can compile PyQT for Cygwin, but with no luck. Has anyone managed to compile SIP and PyQT for Cygwin? All I *really* want to do is to get Eric3 (A nic

Who knows for sure what the *real* driving force that is behind this change. However, it is timed very closely (concurrently?) with MS's extension of 98, 98SE, and Me support through Fall 2006. The current buzz on this change was that MS was afraid too many "orphaned" 98 users (currently 25% of
