Sorry, I'm on the wrong tack there. Apparently the bootstrap script
doesn't work too well on Windows...
Just run
./configure --chicken
C:/git-repos/chicken-core/boot/chicken-6.0.0pre1/../snapshot/share/chicken \
--prefix C:<where-it-should-go>
manually, and then
make boot-chicken
This will produce a chicken-boot (hopefully) that you can then use to
build the final version, like this:
./configure --chicken ./chicken-boot --prefix ...
make
make install
If that should work out, I will provide a dev snaphot that you can build
directly from. But it would still be interesting to see if the steps
given above work.
cheers,
felix
