Hmm, odd - I had assumed you were triggering configure (e.g. due to  
file times or etc) from within the make, as the last message shown in  
your output is "mingw32-make: *** [makeinclude] Error 1" indicating  
that mingw32-make has just exited. It's also odd that it complains  
that it can't create config.status...

Is you Msys/mingw install otherwise OK? I mean, you can build other  
code OK with it and everything? It's odd that fltk would fail like  
this, if the setup is otherwise good. I am at a loss what else to  
suggest...

You mean first, surely? You want to be sure that Msys finds it's  
particular version of any installed utils before it finds any other  
tools you may have installed on your system. Like if you ever had  
cygwin, and the build finds some cygwin tools and some mingw tools,  
well the resulting mix can be "unpleasant"... that sort of thing.

I'm sorry Gary, but I am stumped here - if your Msys/mingw setup is  
working fine otherwise, then I'm at a complete loss as to why the  
fltk build doesn't work... I've used this configuration on a lot of  
machines, from NT4, Win2K, WinXP and Vista, and apart from a little  
Vista oddness early on, it's always worked just fine.
