Stop. > make[1]: Leaving directory no idea what is going wrong here; perhaps a consequence of all the previous errors? because i don't build on windows if i can at all avoid it, i don't really have a good idea what may cause this. perhaps you have some variable like TMPDIR, TEMP or TMP pointing to /tmp? try setting these to some mixed-notation value e.g. "f:/cygwin/tmp", see if that helps... [btw, the general dev@ooo list is a better place to ask about build problems than the API list.] -- "It's very hard to review carefully this kind of boilerplate code. Because it's really, really dull. You basically can't pay people enough to carefully review dull code. We've tried. It does not work. There's some kind of very strong mental habit that causes people to just kind of gloss over the repeated bits.
