Hi, I am trying to build libtiff from the GnuWin32 source package. I am using Bash and Make from MSYS 1.0.10, and I have the current BinUtils and GCC from MinGW 5.1.4. I edited config.status to fix the glibc path for my machine and I ran make. It failed compiling tif_unix.c. In file included from ../../tiff-3.8.2-src/libtiff/tif_unix.c:97: D:/Progra~1/GnuWin32/include/glibc/sys/mman.h:32: error: conflicting types for 'off_t' d:/win32app/MinGW/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/3.4.5/../../../../include/sys/types.h:41: error: previous declaration of 'off_t' was here ... It appears that MinGW is not compatible with the large file support that is enabled in the GnuWin32 libtiff source (off_t is a long in MinGW). I thought that I could easily fix this by making sure that the HAVE_SYS_TYPES_H macro was not defined. I commented out the two relevant lines in the config.status script and ran it again. However, attempting to run make again resulted in the exact same error as above. I looked at the tif_config.h file and verified that HAVE_SYS_TYPES_H was not defined. I don't understand why sys/types.h is still being pulled in from MinGW. Any insights will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
