actually... the script in win32/build_pcb is intended to run under cygwin but it uses the -mno-cygwin flag to gcc to build non-cgywin binaries. I'll admit that the script in there makes lots of assumptions which really aren't documented as to where the required libraries live. > In Cygwin, the best bet is to try: > > ./configure ....... > make > make install > > as usual.
