I have found that some packages won't configure or build without more complete compilers, such as egcs or gcc-2.8.1. Rather than learning how to specify search paths as arguments to configure, I've linked the main /bin directory to /bin, and also made links to cause everything to show up under /usr as it would in Linux. Probably not cool, but it gets me over some path problems. - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
