Thanks for the details. I guess we need an updated MinGW test run to see
where the particular issues are and see if and why they exist.
Currently trunk doesn't build on windows at all, mostly stuff at the
winsock api level.
The mswin branch
(http://bzr.squid-cache.org/bzr/squid3/branches/mswin) is currently a
2.6k lines patch, and brings things a little further ahead, but not
quite enough yet as you can see here:
http://build.squid-cache.org/job/mswin-mingw/175/console
But it doesn't seem to make things worse on other platforms, so I'd
consider merging back to trunk.
The mswin branch itself is a bit messy as we overlapped and
incrementally fixed pieces. There are still some experiments in there
that got pasted over with better fixes that made the experimental code
irrelevant without removing the experimental bits.
So I think it would be better to cherry-pick the changes to trunk and
document each better with commit messages.
