Does anyone here know whether there is already a plan to upgrade the MSYS
distribution so that the msys make (not mingw-make) is 3.80 or 3.81? If not,
is there any documentation how to build msys make at all? The closest I've
found is a message on this list from March:
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg00841.html
I tried following these directions, and got as far as linking the final
executable, which then failed on missing symbols _open_osfhandle and
_beginthreadex and a few others from the CRT.
Mozilla would like to upgrade their makefile system to use the $(eval)
function made available in make 3.80, but don't want to stop working on the
MSYS build system, which is significantly faster than cygwin because of the
cost of forking cygwin processes.
