Hi,

I'm simply unable to build latest GTK+ (2.14.5) on cygwin atm.
I have a bit of building experience, though, so it might simply be a
Cygwin-specific thing I don't know about.
(NOTE: This may be a long post.)

First of all, the GTK+ tree seems to have some bugs:

[0] Preamble: -lintl is always linked in TWICE - this is nonsense.
Commenting out LIBS = -lintl in the Makefile(s) did the trick.

[1] BOTH -export-symbols and -export-symbols-regex were specified.
This lead to a fatal error, since these are mutually exclusive an must
not be specified at the very same time.
#Commenting out the line
LIBTOOL_EXPORT_OPTIONS = -export-symbols-regex "^[^_].*"
let me continue without problems.

[2] On Cygwin, WINDRES environment variable in gdk/win32/rc was not
recognized, transforming this line in the Makefile:
$(WINDRES) gdk.rc $@
to
gdk.rc $@

This resulted in lots of ugly errors. When completing the line WINDRES =
/usr/bin/windres in the parent Makefile, everything worked up to ...

[3] ... this point. Lots of coffee breaks later, it breaks off at this
LONG line:

cp ./gdk.def .libs/cyggdk-win32-2.0-0.dll.def; else echo EXPORTS >

I do have a theory, though.
Pango is trunk and has been built without problems, BUT ...
As I could see, although _explicitly_ specifying
--enable-shared --enable-static

the libpango*.dll.a files are still from 2005. But probably the compiler
*does* need this .dll.a badly! Yet I'm unable to build a .dll.a, instead
I get:

Warning: This system can not link to static lib archive
/usr/lib/libpango-w32.1.0.la.
I have the capability to make that library automatically link in where
you link this library.
But I can only do this if you have a shared version of the library,
which you do not appear to have.

Has anyone ever fiddled with this recently?
I'd appreciate any help on this.

Regards
-Andreas
