Yes. I've compiled it successfully on saturday last week.
The lines for compiling were:
./configure --enable-locales-fix
make
make install
That's it. I've used the .muttrc-stuff from version 1.3.28
as it is.
It seems to be strange that ICONV_CONST is not recognized, because
it will be defined in config.h. That file will be included from
mutt.h that itself will be included by patchlist.c.
To check this I have run a configure and make like you:
./configure --with-homespool=/foo/var
make
and all things went fine!
So, it seems to be something wrong with your cygwin installation.
Ciao, Georg
