One down - one to go.

I guess qxestrcmp is called for:

mule-charset.c
e:\cygwin\usr\local\src\xemacs-21.5-2006-11-06\src\mule-charset.c(558)
: error C2664: 'strcmp' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'unsigned
char *' to 'const char *'
        Types pointed to are unrelated; conversion requires
reinterpret_cast, C-style cast or function-style cast
NMAKE: fatal error U1077: 'cl' : return code '0x2'
Stop.

Aidan, next time please be a little more careful and don't rush to
check things in.  It's better to avoid these gotchas in the first
place.

Thank you,
  Vin
