I'm going to have a go at using the VC built libraries, and build Tux
Paint with the MinGW/MSYS tools.

I've had limited success in the past though, successfully building SDL
and a few other libraries but horrible auto* problems or no support at
all for the other dependencies

I haven't looked at Watcom stuff for years, good to hear.

I think I'll have a look at the Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit 2003 that
they are giving away as well.

Thanks for the suggestions. I've noticed that Python isn't built with
VC6 anymore, so I guess it's off to the glue factory for my copy of VC6,

John.
