Details

I was trying to build mozilla using gcc, mingw under win32. I installed cygwin
and there I choose MS-DOS as "Default Text File Type". This caused all the icons
not to show since the icons seems to have a wrong newline in them

wouldn't it be possible to detect this and warn about it.

you can detect it by running mount:
if it says "textmode" it's wrong. If it says "binmode" it's good!
Probably related to/dupe of bug 203443.
That sounds like a bug with the icons.  They should be marked as binary files
(-kb) so newlines are not translated.
