Greetings! Great to hear of your progress. BTW, I build frequently under latest wine/mingw packages in Debian, together with maxima/acl2/axiom, without issue. Had a native windows box too recently and got things working.
axiom needs xdr. Latest glibc moves the functions, and my configure fix was too stringent. How about this: --- configure.in 16 Jan 2012 20:08:03 -0000 1.112.4.1.2.2.2.47.2.3.2.1.4.2.4.2.4.70 +++ configure.in 17 Jan 2012 17:21:56 -0000 @@ -66,7 +66,7 @@ [try_japi=$enableval],[try_japi="no"]) AC_ARG_ENABLE(xdr,[ --enable-xdr=yes will compile in support for XDR], -[try_xdr=$enableval],[try_xdr="no"]) +[enable_xdr=$enableval],[enable_xdr="yes"]) AC_ARG_ENABLE(xgcl,[ --enable-xgcl=yes will compile in support for XGCL], [enable_xgcl=$enableval],[enable_xgcl="yes"]) @@ -1046,8 +1046,12 @@ fi -AC_CHECK_FUNC(xdr_double,, - AC_CHECK_LIB(tirpc,xdr_double,TLIBS="$TLIBS -ltirpc",AC_MSG_ERROR([Need xdr_double]))) +if test "$enable_xdr" = "yes" ; then + AC_CHECK_FUNC(xdr_double,AC_DEFINE(HAVE_XDR), + AC_CHECK_LIB(tirpc,xdr_double,AC_DEFINE(HAVE_XDR) TLIBS="$TLIBS -ltirpc", + AC_CHECK_LIB(rpc,xdr_double,AC_DEFINE(HAVE_XDR) TLIBS="$TLIBS -lrpc", + AC_CHECK_LIB(oncrpc,xdr_double,AC_DEFINE(HAVE_XDR) TLIBS="$TLIBS -loncrpc")))) +fi AC_MSG_CHECKING(__builtin___clear_cache) AC_TRY_COMPILE([], @@ -1373,17 +1377,17 @@ EXTRA_LOBJS="${EXTRA_LOBJS} gcl_japi.o" LIBS="${LIBS} -ljapi -lwsock32"] ) fi -if test "$use" = "mingw" ; then - if test "$try_xdr" = "yes" ; then - AC_CHECK_HEADERS(rpc/rpc.h,[AC_DEFINE(HAVE_XDR) - LIBS="${LIBS} -loncrpc"] ) - fi -else - if test "$try_xdr" = "yes" ; then - AC_CHECK_HEADERS(rpc/rpc.h,[AC_DEFINE(HAVE_XDR) - LIBS="${LIBS} -lrpc"] ) - fi -fi +dnl if test "$use" = "mingw" ; then +dnl if test "$try_xdr" = "yes" ; then +dnl AC_CHECK_HEADERS(rpc/rpc.h,[AC_DEFINE(HAVE_XDR) +dnl LIBS="${LIBS} -loncrpc"] ) +dnl fi +dnl else +dnl if test "$try_xdr" = "yes" ; then +dnl AC_CHECK_HEADERS(rpc/rpc.h,[AC_DEFINE(HAVE_XDR) +dnl LIBS="${LIBS} -lrpc"] ) +dnl fi +dnl fi # Should really find a way to check for prototypes, but this # basically works for now.
