I don't see any problem here, using sources obtained from CVS after
your posting, run from source directory (I don't have the disk space
for a second copy).

	cd /usr/src/grass
	./configure --prefix=/opt --bindir=/usr/local/bin --enable-w11 \
	 --without-postgres --without-gd --without-odbc --without-fftw \
	 --without-opengl
	make
	bin.i686-pc-cygwin/grass5
	...
	d.mon start=x0

NB: tcltkgrass "builds" OK (no real surprise), but won't run because
Cygwin's Tcl/Tk package doesn't seem to understand Cygwin paths.
