http://prdownloads.sf.net/mingw/MSYS-1.0.8.exe?download
and 
http://prdownloads.sf.net/mingw/MinGW-3.0.0-1.exe?download

Right, but the dmake test hangs on t/comp/cpp.t in the command.com
shell, but doesn't hang in bash with MSYS. I didn't use make at all.

That was part of the MinGW3 download, 14 Mb.

I can't find Encode.pm in ~/perl-21501/lib, so I guess it wasn't
built.

I may have tried downloading the 2.95-2 from www.mingw.org, but couldn't 
work out how to fit into the mingw setup. I think I untarred it, but
gcc --v was still reporting it was 3.2. I haven't read teh Readme in 
a while. I will look at it again.

I tried AP806, I think, but I remember a problem with pad.c. It wasn't there
or something.
