FWIW, somehow gnucash (which uses guile) runs on windows, not sure how. My pet peeve with mingw is the lack of ready-to-go regex. This is completely unrelated to guile; I have another project that made the mistake of assuming that regex "just worked" on windows, and I've been bitched at ever since. Getting regex into mingw and having it "just work" would be excellent. --linas
