Thanks for the feedback!
Perhaps a better question is what is the expected build environment for FSF
based Gnoga on Windows?
By default the command window does not have "make" nor does it have a non
GPL version of GCC. When you built it, what did you use as an
environment? I got mingw64 because it comes with both make and FSF GCC.
If there is a different environment that Gnoga requires, I can try to
accomodate. It might also be good to have something somewhere that lays
out the specific build environment needed since base windows is not
compatible.
