I downloaded mysql-3.23.49-win-src.zip. There are various files missing (e.g. Makefile) that would enable compiling with gcc.
Has anyone out there made mysql from source on Win platform with gcc? I had been trying to compile my own client but was getting a lot of undefines at link time - the instructions said that mysql should be remade from source to solve this problem. I am stuck trying to do that.
