[tex-live] Installing TeXLive2008 on Cygwin

[Angelo Graziosi]

Now the tarball contains XeTeX statically linked. TL has been built on

    ./Build --without-graphite

and with some patches and workarounds which solve the problems we meet
these days.

Thanks to the work of Rodrigo Medina who opened the way...
