problems compiling pspp in cygwin

I tried to follow a howto from "unknown-1", who recently made a cygwin windows port of pspp available (http://rapidshare.de/files/39660548/*PSPP*-0.6.0.RC2-7-Setup.zip.html <http://rapidshare.de/files/39660548/PSPP-0.6.0.RC2-7-Setup.zip.html>). Here is an excerpt of the howto I followed:

*1.  For development use, **Install Cygwin and update with Cygwin-Ports *

- on a clean PC Cygwin (http:www.cygwin.com <http://www.cygwin.com/>) is fully installed using the setup program. The complete installation is time and disk space consuming. It might be sufficient to install:
    - Base install (which is default)
    - the group Devel
    - the group Libs
    - the group Graphics
    - the group X11
    - the package "libglade2-devel"
    - the package "libgetaddrinfo-devel"
- the Cygwin-Ports (http://cygwinports.dotsrc.org <http://cygwinports.dotsrc.org/>) packages are downloaded from ftp://sunsite.dk/projects/cygwinports/release (using FTP) to a local package directory on your PC.
- you now have to change the date of the setup.ini with:
      sed -i -e "address@hidden:address@hidden: `date +%s`@" \
<your local directory path>/ftp%3a%2f%2fsunsite.dk%2fprojects%2fcygwinports/setup.ini this timestamp change is necessary because of the way the Cygwin setup functions. - setup is started again now with install from local directory. Use the directory where the Cygwinports packages are stored as your local directory and click continue etc. Select
    - the package Yelp
    - the package libglade2-devel
    - the package libgetaddrinfo-devel
as additional package and continue. Setup wil now install all updates form the Cygwinports packages. - Create a link with ln /usr/lib/libpng12.a /usr/lib/libpng.a (this is a workaround which might not be necessary)

I omitted the last step. I checked the versions of packages gtk+-2.0 and libglade-2.0 to meet the demands of ./configure (see previous postings to the list). Configure finsihed without any errors.

Make reportet 2 errors. Here are the last few lines of the output:

grep: /usr/lib/libXdamage.la: No such file or directory
/usr/bin/sed: can't read /usr/lib/libXdamage.la: No such file or directory
libtool: link: `/usr/lib/libXdamage.la' is not a valid libtool archive
make[2]: *** [src/ui/gui/libpsppwidgets.la] Fehler 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/flxms/src/pspp-0.6.0'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Fehler 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/flxms/src/pspp-0.6.0'
make: *** [all] Fehler 2

Unfortunately I am quite a newbie and have problems interpreting this output. I couldn't find a package named Xdamage via the cygwin Installtool. Could please anyone help me out?

Best regards, flxms.
