send the patches on the ML, please. I'll take care of them (well i'll be away for 5 days, so don't expect them to hit svn immediatly). I prefer the ML instead of a private mail. >> * dlfcn-win32 is dead and the author does not want to add non POSIX >>extension (like the GNU dladdr, which I have added).

I won't let MinGW devs know about that problem as they won't do anything anyway about dlfcn-win32. I've already dealt with them, with patches, etc... I have patches in their bugzilla that I sent 6 or 7 years ago... So I gave up. The problem with Windows is that there is no centralized package system. The only viable solution is to install a project, an application, etc... in its own directory. best regards Vincent ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
