AFAIK, it will require cygwin1.dll, unless a change is also made (it  
is in the attached patch) to compile with -mno-cygwin.  This seems to  
run fine on my machine, without any of the cygwin DLLs (they are  
installed, of course, but shouldn't be accessible outside of a Cygwin  
shell).

Two of these, plus the Makefile.in as above.

Patch is attached.  .exe is at:

http://tangomu.com/ocrad.exe

I have no idea about Windows version restrictions.  My assumption  
would be it will run on any version from Win95 to WinXP (no idea  
about Vista).
