I didn't find any errors but there are a couple of things you could add. Using the Fedora11 cross compiler: - If using the Fedora11 cross-compiler, the host setting is "i686-pc-mingw32" rather than "i586-mingw32msvc". - I managed to get a working fldigi build using the Wiki build instructions with minimal changes but couldn't get the xmlrpc library to work. Using the Mingw/Msys tools native on windows: - The windows file system does not handle symlinks so: 1. The symlinks in the build instructions need to be replaced with file copies. 2. XMLRPC makes extensive (and unnecessary) use of symlinks in its Makefiles. For windows, these need to be removed (see attached patch). - The line ".EXPORT_ALL_VARIABLES: appbundle nsisinst hamlib-static" in fldigi src/Makefile must be commented out in order to avoid an error in Make (the error is due to a memory overflow but isn't obvious from the diagnostics). This could be a source of problems in the build - I'm not a make expert! - The windows native build is "work in progress". The program compiles and runs but Hamlib and xmlrpc don't currently work.
