Owen,

This howto may be relevant - perhaps you have read it already:

That would be "./configure" of course, NOT "./config". I assume that's
just a typo on your part?

If you are in an Msys shell. "z:/" is almost certainly not a valid path
I guess? Something like "/z" is more likely to be correct.

However, if you are unfamiliar with the msys/mimgw setup and it little
quirks, what I would advocate would be installing Msys itself on your Z:
drive (e.g. at Z:/msys/...) then *not* setting a prefix at all at build
time.

The install will then go to where Msys *thinks* /usr/local/... is at -
which in your case would actually be Z:/Msys/1.0/local/...

The advantage of that, for all subsequent builds from within Msys, is
that it can fix up the paths for you, so that /usr/local/lib
/usr/local/share and so forth *appear* to be where the tools expect them
to be...

Also, if you are trying to build from an svn checkout, rather than from
a tarball, you probably want to run autoconf the first time before you
run configure.

Are the tools actaully working in general? I mean, can you build other
c/c++ code OK with them, etc...?

This should all Just Work (TM) - it does for me, as recently as this
morning...
