[xcrysden] Does anyone have a functional Xcrysden onwindows7 /cygwin?

[c00jsh00 at nchc.narl.org.tw]

On 64-bit Windows 7, you can install both Cygwin/X and 64-Cugwin/Xt in different directories
 (eg. C:/cygwin  and C:/cygwin64 ), but Xcrysden only works in Cygwin/X (i.e. 32bit).

I have the same problem as well. Tried to compile the source by installing all the packages as per the instructions. The culprit in my case seems to be tcl.
