[GRASS5] Cygwin build of Grass5

[John Huddleston]

Hi Eric,

No shared (DLL) libraries are being built.   The binaries
both .a and .exe are placed under the /usr/local/grass-5.0b
area as well as all the other support files during the gmake5
process.   It builds the same as the Unix build.   Except for
executables with .exe, all the files look like Unix files.

I guess the major secret is that I added a Gmakefile in all
the directories where they did not exist.   The lines in the
Gmakefile are 

all:
    $(MAKEALL)

That's most of it.  I ran the testgrass.sh and it passed all
except for the last which was supposed to fail.  Actually, 
I would like Markus, and others, to add more to the testgrass.sh
to verify that all programs will run.
