SPECLIST has still got me stuck. I've managed to set up almost everything else, except perhaps for a unistd.h replacement. Found a dirent.h and a stdint.h no problemo. This SPECLIST code screams for C++ templates. It looks very fragile and hard to debug. Certainly, trying to deal with it in MSVC is a miserable experience. I haven't figured out if the reason it works at all is GCC specific, or if I've run into a MSVC deficiency, or something else. Christian, thanks for the offer of the MinGW toolchain on the Freeciv FTP site. For now I will keep going with MSVC, as I have made much more progress with that than trying to get Eclipse to work.
