libXaw8 replacement

I use a program (xdvi-xaw.exe, which I obtained from Angelo Graziosi's
build of texlive for cygwin) that stopped working after the X11
upgrade. I traced this to the fact that it relied on the (now obsolete)
libXaw8 package. Installing this package solved the problem, but I
thought a better solution would be to rebuild texlive so that it would
use the current libraries instead of an obsolete one. The build failed
as follows:
gcc -o xdvi-xaw.exe browser.o dl_list.o dvi-draw.o dvi-init.o dvisel.o
encodings.o events.o exit-handlers.o filehist.o font-open.o gf.o
string_list.o hypertex.o image-magick.o main.o mime.o my-snprintf.o
my-vsnprintf.o pagehist.o pk.o print-internal.o psdps.o psgs.o
psheader.o psnews.o read-mapfile.o search-internal.o special.o
string-utils.o tfmload.o util.o vf.o xdvi.o xserver-info.o x_util.o

/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.4/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin/bin/ld:
cannot find -lresolv
I assume this means that I have to install a package that contains the
resolv library, but I couldn't find one by searching the cygwin package
list. Can someone tell me what package I need to install? I've
attached my cygcheck output so that you can see what I already have.
FWIW, I was able to successfully build texlive prior to the X11 upgrade.
