(Slapping myself) sorry for my folly. With your information I successfully built Make under Cygwin: autoreconf -i ./configure --build=i686-pc-mingw32 CC='gcc -mno-cygwin' cd w32 && make && cd .. make make.exe (I may not have enough tools installed to make from the root directory.) > With MinGW and MSVC, running build_w32.bat should work if you add the > line that produces config.h from config.h.W32.template.

Do I have to manually replace %PACKAGE% and %VERSION%? Is there an easy way?
