I don't know what that revision was. But I now tried again with 1.3.x-r8744, doing only 1) "configure", and 2) "make", and *ignoring* the various readmes, with following outcome:
Compiles and links most (all?) necessary files, but fails on making the man pages: === making documentaion === Formatting src/fltk.man... /bin/sh: man: command not found (above gets repated for a few other files) I did a search but didn't found any man execuatbe/script. Maybe there is package for it in MinGW installer (though I don't remember such thing). So, you may wonder why I didn't come this far before ? I cannot tell other than the fact that I obeyed the readmes. Of course (due to them being partially listed in the readme(s)) I may have provided a few configure options to customize the build, something I don't remember the exact detailes about though. But if I try build customizations again and fail I'll let you know. > What release number of fltk-1.3 did you try? What build process?
