[Gmsh] GMSH and MED compilation in Cygwin environment

[Christophe Geuzaine]

Hi Pierre,

The official Gmsh version for Windows is compiled with the MinGW compiler toolchain (gcc 4.5.3), using a Cygwin shell. I don't quite remember what I had to modify in MED to make it compile... I've put the full archive of the sources I used here:
