Just to clarify things:
I have a script on a solaris box (not *.freeciv.org) which does a cvs checkout, 
compiles freeciv for windows, and creates the .zip file. I run it at least 
every two weeks.
The cvs snapshots can be downloaded from the page
http://www.informatik.uni-bremen.de/~akemnade/civhome.html
In the first column of www.freeciv.org/download.phtml there is a link to that 
page.
So the question is: Is there a way to create such a setup binary on an unix 
system (perhaps from an existing .exe generated by Inno Setup)?

Greetings
Andreas Kemnade
