I've seen this. The short answer is don't use MinGW. MinGW is missing many of the things we take for granted in a 'normal' unix and that cygwin supplies. If you do some Googling you'll find some information to read about what MinGW lacks.
Basically MinGW attempts to use the incomplete Posix.1 subsystem in WinNT do provide a unix like environment. Cygwin does a much more complete job by finishing off the holes in WinNT's Posix.1 subsystem, fixing what is buggy, and replacing what sucked. Please try this in a cygwin shell: cp ./db/db.h.win32 ./db/db.h cp ./db/db_config.h.win32 ./db/db_config.h cp ./include/htconfig.h.win32 ./include/htconfig.h make -f Makefile.win32 That should fire off a build using Microsoft's compilers...
