Hmm, I'm a little bamboozled now. Having made one successful 2.8.5 
wxWidgets build I cannot make another as I am getting syntax errors, 
typified by:

/c/Steve/Projects/wxWidgets-2.8.5/bld-cygwin/bk-deps g++ -c -o 
basedll_appbase.o -D__WXMSW__ -I../src/tiff -I../src/jpeg -I../src/png

                  from ../src/common/appbase.cpp:31:

make: *** [basedll_appbase.o] Error 1

The configure line was:

../configure --prefix=/home/wx28/ --enable-rpath=/home/wx28 --enable-unicode

but the same error occurs without specifying a Unicode build.

Since I am using the same sources as before I am puzzled as to why this 
error has now put in an appearance. I don't *think* I did anything to 
change the build environment (but then we never do, do we?). I have even 
restored the source tree from the Internet to ensure that an inadevrtent 
edit wasn't responsible.

Strikes me it has to be a bozo error, but I don't see it.

regards
  Steve
