Sorry Earnie, I was assuming so, as this winsup thing is just for building in tree on soureware repository. But well, it might be a cygwin-thing only. niXman: Eg you have the gcc-repository checked out in C:/sources/gcc. And you are using the prefix = C:/myprefix. Then you need to setup in C:/sources a symbolic link named "winsup" pointing to C:/myprefix. Don't miss that you have in C:/myprefix a symbolic link - named mingw - pointing to C:/myprefix/<target>.
