I tried that already. I did it again with Verbose and didn't see anything suspicious except:
generating unf_ext-i386-mingw32.def compiling unf.cc cc1plus.exe: warning: command line option "-Wdeclaration-after- statement" is valid for C/ObjC but not for C++ cc1plus.exe: warning: command line option "-Wimplicit-function- declaration" is valid for C/ObjC but not for C++ linking shared-object unf_ext.so So that's a maybe. Other than that, it looks like it installed fine. I've put an issue up on the github for mechanize. In the meantime I'm using Nokogiri for reading the page, since I don't have to do any interaction with it.
