Hi Christian,

download and compile this tarball, with Cygwin:

   http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/jikes/jikes-1.22.tar.bz2?download

 $./configure
 $ make
 $ make install

I'm not sure that Davanum's patch (See Kaffe's FAQ.win32 in CVS HEAD)
is really needed because I was able to build Classpath in two ways: with 
and without
the patch.

The problem I had was related to a non-ANSI character present in a Java 
source file (CORBA),
which made Jikes hang. After Mark patched the code, I've been able to 
build Classpath 0.19 and 0.20

ciao,
Enrico
