Hi,

if you are building erlang under cygwin to follow the couchdb 0.10
windows instructions, turn off your on-access virus scanner (McAfee in
my case), it leaks memory, may be because of cygwin who knows, but
results in nasty Windows crash with lots of CreateProcessA errors and
nothing else works in the OS either.  A hard reboot is the only way
out.

Turning off the scanner works ok,

I had to make the following change to

otp_src_R13B02-1\lib\gs\tcl\Makefile.in

FYI, I just added a 'SKIP' file to the lib/gs dir, meaning the couchdb binaries I've made available simply have no tcl support at all.

and I wasn't able to get the enviroment to pick up wxwidgets or
openssl but everything else was good!

I donwloaded the SLL binary installer pointed to by the erlang readme and it worked "as advertised" (ie, magically just worked). The install had the result of adding a OPENSSL_CONF variable to my environment which is how I suspect the magic works...

Cheers,

Mark
