Quoting Benjamin Smedberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Does anyone here know whether there is already a plan to upgrade the
MSYS distribution so that the msys make (not mingw-make) is 3.80 or
3.81? If not, is there any documentation how to build msys make at
all? The closest I've found is a message on this list from March:
http://www.mail-archive.com/make-w32@gnu.org/msg00841.html
I tried following these directions, and got as far as linking the
final executable, which then failed on missing symbols
_open_osfhandle and _beginthreadex and a few others from the CRT.
Mozilla would like to upgrade their makefile system to use the
$(eval) function made available in make 3.80, but don't want to stop
working on the MSYS build system, which is significantly faster than
cygwin because of the cost of forking cygwin processes.
Please review the [EMAIL PROTECTED] and
[EMAIL PROTECTED] archives. I'm working on upgrading
the packages for the release candidate of the 1.0.11 version.
