Thanks Tim, It must be something else. Here are my two environment variables:
ALT_FREETYPE_HEADERS_PATH=C:/Progra~1/GnuWin32/include ALT_FREETYPE_LIB_PATH=C:/Progra~1/GnuWin32/lib At a minimum I have to edit C:\OpenJDK\jdk7\jdk\make\tools\freetypecheck\Makefile as follows: # change freetype.dll to freetype6.dll FREETYPE_DLL = $(FREETYPE_LIB_PATH)/freetype6.dll because there is no freetype.dll in C:\Program Files\GnuWin32, just freetype6.dll. Here is my "make sanity" output: ERROR: FreeType version 2.3.0 or higher is required. make[2]: Entering directory `/cygdrive/c/OpenJDK/jdk7/jdk/make/tools/freetypecheck' c:/OpenJDK/jdk7/build/windows-i586/btbins/freetype_versioncheck.exe make[2]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/c/OpenJDK/jdk7/jdk/make/tools/freetypecheck' Failed to build freetypecheck. BTW, How do I put prints in the make file to see the values of the variables?
