   When I get the time again, I'll try to set up a working cygwin based
build environment. On my initial quick attempt it did not seem to work
for me for some reason... failed to even find Boost Build files...

   Possibly someone else with access to a system having these problems
can help you in the meantime. :-(

   Sorry about that. Seems I messed up something and the
doxygen.xml.path parameter was getting constructed incorrectly. I've
corrected the bug now and committed a patch.
