[Freeciv-Dev] Cygwin Client Build - SM and ICE

["Todd Goodman" <tsg1@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I had previously reported that the build worked as-is from CVS.

Prior to that I had reported that I was having problems with the
link order of the X libraries in the client build.

I still am.  I believe I had not received fresh CVS sources when I
reported success previously.

In preparation for a cygwin binary build I wiped my whole tree and
pulled everything from CVS and experienced the problem.

I've worked around the problem by patching configure.in as follows:

        /usr/local/src/freeciv/freeciv> cvs diff configure.in

I don't know automake or autoconf so there's probably a different file
I need to change (aclocal.m4?) but I sure can't find it.

The Makefile is still pretty ugly as I used to see -lSM and -lICE defined
in X_LIBS (at the beginning of the lib list) and defined in X_PRE_LIBS
(not used anymore).  This change adds them to the end of X_EXTRA_LIBS right
before the -lX11.

The problem was that some of the other libs (-lXt I think) have dependencies
on SM and ICE and the cygwin ld is single pass by default.
