This looks like what I need. Unfortunately I can't seem to compile the
necessary C files to run elephant-unstable. Even when I copy the "gcc ..."
command into cygwin and compile manually, I still get this when I try to use
the resultant dll file:

$ gcc -mno-cygwin -mwindows -Wall -c -std=c99 "c:\Program
Files\asdf\elephant-unstable\src\memutil\libmemutil.c" -o "c:\Program
Files\asdf\elephant-unstable\src\memutil\libmemutil.dll"

Error opening shared object "c:\\Program
Files\\asdf\\elephant-unstable\\src\\memutil\\libmemutil.dll":
  5.
   [Condition of type SIMPLE-ERROR]

Can anyone who works regularly with Windows give me advice on compiling
these dependencies? Thanks.

These might be useful as well, but I won't need them immediately (and I've
got more pressing concerns anyways).
