New Xastir-devel package

Please give it another try. I've been putting too many ATU's in to WinXastir and I think I'm finally making some progress. Lots of little things and hickups are keeping it challenging and a character building exercise..
Basic Cygwin (touch command) is broken for Win98 right now. Things like that don't help.
Bottom line - there's now three Xastir packages available.
* xastir-min -- the minimum to have a running stable Xastir
* xastir -- Stable source with as many libraries and features that can be directly loaded.
* xastir-devel -- one little script for setting up CVS checkouts but with all the dependencies required to compile the source.
I'm still tuning the dependencies.. xastir-min and xastir should have just what they need to run. xastir-devel should have what's needed to compile Xastir. Any corrections to my lists would be appreciated. I'm pretty sure I can pull some out of xastir-min and shrink that install a bit. I'm gong to look at that tomorrow.

I see that sometimes. Seems to be random. There's weirdness here.
