Just grab the source at http://www.mersenne.org/source.htm and see if it
compiles and links.  You will not compile the ASM stuff - both ELF and COFF
style object files are provided for the ASM code.

If it works, then you'll have to operate in manual mode.  The "security codes"
are not provided in the sources.  Thus, the server won't talk to your client.

Good luck,
George
