Yes, although "fast" is relative; it takes its time to build everything from scratch, especially GCC (about twenty minutes for me; a faster computer might help). But this can run in the background, of course. > Can you tell MXE to build and prefer static libraries so that we can ship a > minimal of DLL's?

My test builds don't require any DLLs at all (not even zlib), except for those that have --enable-dl-XXX for legal reasons. (The newest is at http://www.chirlu.de/temp/sox-win32-experimental/, by the way; it is from relatively-current git master though, not from 14.4.0.) I also found out recently that libtool recognizes an option "-all-static" when linking executables. It will then statically link everything, even indirect dependencies, and even when dynamic libraries are also present. I think I will make a configuration option for that and remove the workarounds.
