Thanks very much for your reply. I have put lots of copies of [libffi.a, libffi-5.a], [libffi.dll.a, libffi-5.dll.a] and libffi-5.dll in a bunch of places, and it now appears that I get past the JIT stage (where [] refers to the same file but copied with a different name). The build is still running, 1.3GB and counting. So it appears that one of them has the right name in the right location. I will backtrack to see which of the combinations was correct. Best way to contribute to the documentation for building pypy on Windows using Mingw? regards Caleb _______________________________________________ pypy-dev mailing list pypy-dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
