[Laszlo-dev] Cygwin

[Eric Bloch]

The laszlo build on windows still requires cygwin in a few places (in 
theory we could get rid of it some day; but some of our doc tools and 
other things make enough use of it that it would be painful to get there 
for now).

This error means you probably don't have cygwin installed (or at least 
you don't have the standard cygwin/unix grep binary in your path).
